Another Quantum Lounge performance. A great night tonight. Good sound, good atmosphere. Got the sound really good for other performers. Felt very relaxed and comfortable on stage, though volume not quite right for me. I arrived early to get in an early start - 5pm. I ordered a lovely veal from the restaurant and set about setting up. Found a great Sure mic in the cupboard, and some DI boxes. Set up three microphones and tested out di box. I made some progress in that I discovered the sub actually does kick in on one side, but only over a certain level. David arrived so I set him up on stage and he started performing solo to the afternoon crowd for about 10 songs!. This enabled me to get comfortable with the mixer before everyone else arrived. As a bonus, I also got the chorus effect going on the mixer. Martin arrived and I got him fired up too. Then I finally jumped on stage just as Simon was walking in the door for a quick rendition of Sleep Walking before he got himself setup.

Then Simon provided backing music and performed a few songs until the first artist. Morgan and Benny (Anomalie) were ready to go onstage when their guests arrived at about 8:30 Anomalie performed about 6 or 7 songs. They were followed by us - The Flaming Galahs (Hal,David,Martin). We then performed every original song we could think of for the rest of the evening, up until about 11:30pm! Simon and Josh were able to pack up and leave during my performance while we kept playing, due to the new wiring setup. Then Ivan provided CD tunes to take us till after midnight. Ivan provided some great videos as usual. Tonight featured some great sports and space images. Some other girl artist (named Bridey?) apparently turned up to perform, expecting a crowd like last week, and turned and left when she saw how small the audience was! (Apparently she wasn't feeling well we later found out) Some artists expressed interest in making it more of an open mic night at QL ...
