Dear House Concert Community!
I just performed my first house concert with two of the revolving cast of characters who make up "The 99%"
I sold my first 3 CD's in history (given away quite a few...) collected 5 email addresses.
It was celebrating the end of the academic year for Fieldston Academy faculty, so we didn't do and "ask".
The audience was engaged throughout including 9 original songs, and 2 covers, one of which is our encore featured here.

The concert was 1 hour including the encore, I think it was one song too many, but I was thrilled with the success of the Shannon Curtis' House Concert Model!!
I followed the "Tom Jackson Graph" model for designing the set list. If I had stuck to his recommended 9 songs plus 1 encore, I would have hit it on the nose!
Thanks, Shannon, for your book which made this all so easy to envision and carry off!
