Chances are that there will be other performers as well, bring a guitar or some bongo drums if you're feeling creative. Don't forget about SOUPS too. You will be permitted to leave and return if you keep your ticket. You will also want to keep your ticket handy for a chance at a door prize (CD's, pizza, movies, etc...)
