I've been playing a little over a year, I'm getting there, but I'm definitely still a n00b. This weekend my friend's mom is throwing a luau-themed BBQ and she has asked me to bring my uke for some sing-along action. I've put together a little songbook of tunes that I feel like the people there will know, and that I feel like I can play pretty well. Beyond that and practicing a lot these last couple of weeks, I haven't done much preparation.
My questions/concerns; I usually play alone, and I can get through the tunes pretty well, but I've never played in front of a group of people, I'm worried that it will throw me off my game. If you've ever been in this boat, what have you learned that I should keep in mind? (and don't tell me to imagine them naked, they are not a sexy bunch )
Also, my instinct is to bring my unassuming little Mele concert, instead of my Fender electric. I'm thinking smaller uke, smaller sound, keep the expectations more modest. Thoughts?
