Great picture, Bru - thanks for posting it, John. Although, I must agree with Bru and Cathy that the first one (smaller and darker) is actually the best. I see no problem with smaller files - actually in this setting, I believe smaller is better as it takes less time to load.
Kenyon - sounds like my kind of show. The 250-300 seat acoustic concert series I work with has spoiled me to the point that if there are more than 300-400 people, it's almost too crowded
