Hey Tom,
My daughter and I just saw Phil Keaggy in concert on Saturday night. We had front row center seats. I think Phil is a master at loving his audience. He definitely has that marriage thing going one with his audience like you talk about. There were several times where he looked both of us right in the eyes during the concert. He is humble and makes you feel like he is your friend while he is performing. I am trying to do this with my music as well.

I agree with everything you said Tom. I just find as a newer artist it’s so hard to put yourself out there to be that vulnerable…because a lot of gigs I’ve played the audience has never heard my tunes before because I’m opening for another band. You start to worry and get self conscious it’s human nature. Hopefully, in time it’ll all come together on stage but right now it’s a struggle. Thanks for the helpful advice though.
Tom,
That last piece with the Springsteen reference was so good! I kept nodding my head saying, “right, right!” I did a show the other night in Newport, R.I, a big Gala for the Tall Ships. When I began to relate to people openly while they were dancing, my whole show went to a different level. It became way more personal, and one-on-one with each party goer. The songs were big band, Sinatra type that have been heard for years. It was as if my crowd was hearing it new for the first time. It blew me away with the connection the crowd had with the band. When you have to think too much on stage – boy what a difference in the performance. Your DVD’s have been great tools for improvement. Thanks for what you do!
Mike
