Running mic through guitar amp?

Astronomer · 09-30-2010, 05:00 AM

Hey guys quick question,
My band is playing a gig at this dude's party and it's going to be a really ghetto setup in his backyard. There's no PA and we don't own any professional equipment or anything... We've got everything sorted apart from our mics (for vox), which we'll probably just run through a spare guitar amp that we have. My question is, is it possible to run two mics through a guitar amp or will it be overkill? It's not an overly powerful amp or anything (I forget how many watts!) AND if it is possible to run two mics through the one amp how do you do this, can you buy some kind of adaptor that allows you to plug two in?
Sorry for being such a dumbass but I completely suck at technical shit!
