I mean, if it were a full band, then yes, there's a lot to keep an eye (ear) on, but when it's just a backing track and a microphone (with a touch of reverb & delay) it's not exactly rocket science to get the balance right, especially whe you've had a dry run already!

but apart from that, though t'was a good night, and a lot of money was raised for charidee
