EQUIPMENT
Audio system: Microphone and PA, and stage monitor are necessary depnding on the venue dimensions and circumstance of performance. The minmum requirement, Shour SM57-LC Cardioid Dynamic Microphone.
I prefer sitting on a wide bench, a Piano bench or on the floor in the platform that covered with rugs if it is possible! My performance should be in an indoor stage with dehumidified air condition. The backlight of the stage is formal and normal
