Nice gear, btw.

Yes, this was a lucky night!
It's a great open mic. I have been to it before.
Generally, each performer is allowed to do 3 songs, or about 12 minutes of music.
Before going up I told the host that I was going to do five songs, but explained that they were short and I was going to do them as a medley. That was all that I planned to do, but when I finished with the medley, the host asked me to stay up for one more song. So, yeah, six songs in total. That does not usually happen at an open mic.
That open mic with 50 names in a hat to fill 35 slots is wild. The host must run a smooth operation.
