This is awesome, George… we should try to get some Spotify playlists up of people’s sets! (or at least the songs on there that are on Spotify!)
Nervous about my set tomorrow at 7pm now!
Oh you’ll be fine; they’re a very musically open-minded audience in there! I might pop by and have a listen myself!
We should have recorded this!
(And others.)
