A small audience can still be awesome.

Last night I had an audience that maxed out at two (four if you count the owners). It's a rare occurance, but nonetheless it does happen to every musician. Fortunately, the concert ended up being a memorable, fun one in spite of the low turnout.

My friend Diana was initially the only person besides the owner at Pick-a-Cup Coffee, so since she's also a musician (and I'd never heard her original material), we traded songs. At some point, a man named Borislav, or Bobby, walked in--and left and came back with a bunch of flowers. Diana stayed long enough to produce the epiphany that one of my songs is in 7/8, which I hadn't realized, but she had to leave early; Bobby handled her a rose as she was walking out the door and said that she had a beautiful voice. He gave me one as well. Toward the end of my set, another man walked into the coffee shop and ended up buying me coffee when I was done; Bobby left and a few minutes later returned and handed me the rest of the flowers. So even though I didn't make any money and played for barely anyone, I did walk out of the night with a dozen pink roses. They happen to be my favorite flower.
