Right on John. Even to the point of encouraging individuals to come up and
sing with the band, or sit on a band stool while you sing to them, or sing
special numbers to a group of 2 or 3 young ladies, mentioning their names,
. . .or get the audience involved in other ways.

That's show business/entertainment and the business we are all a part of.


Cheers,
