There'll be about 80-90 people there (my backyard is pretty big) and the band will be made up of me on guitar, a pianist, a singer and a drummer. A bassist is available if the pianist can't cover the bass parts (either on piano or on bass).
I'm probably gonna rent a P.A. with two speakers on stands and run the vocals, piano, and bass through that; maybe I'll mike the guitar amp also.
We'll be doing only covers, mostly piano-driven numbers [but, of course, they'll all contain extended guitar solos;)], and the thing will last for probably an hour.
So, my issues are these: What do I need to take into consideration for an outdoor concert? My neighbours may also be at home, so I can't crank everything. How about drums? What changes when you bring them outdoors?
If there's any other potential issues you may think of, please let me know as well.
Thanks a lot for your advice!
