Because every room is different, no one can tell you 'set the gain at___, set reverb to____' - it's all a guess until you get there and work the sound.
Quite honestly, I would bring a guitar that I could plug in (not mic) for this first gig. Trying to balance 2 mics, adjust EQ, reverb and volumes without a helper (who knows what to listen for) is a tough thing to do.
At a recent venue (small brew room), the sound was pretty bad - tall ceiling, hard surfaces meant NO reverb used at all on my mixer, the room's reverb overwhelmed the sound.
