To help combat stage fright I say a mantra to myself. "I'm really excited, I want this. I'm so happy to be here!" I try to turn nervousness into excitement.. it mostly works.

Thanks Kim, I certainly can relate, I have played for family and friends and found it very difficult, now after not performing for a while I am back to square one not playing for anyone, thanks for sharing, will certainly give improv a try as I really enjoyed being onstage.

Thanx for tips Kim. My idea was similar to yours,i put myself out there on this small stage for few open mics. First one with my own songs,second with some covers and a 2nd guutarist. I dont get panick attacks or anxiety before,just some shaky legs but still it gets better with each performance. This is what I love to do and i am not gonna give up for anything. I would rather die onstage from heart attack than give up to anxiety or fear. But thats me. I get some people struggle more. Looking forward to our first show as a band later this year,its been ages since my teen years gigging. Great.content as always

That is awesome! Yeah getting out there is the best way to deal with it. And I love what you said about dying from a heart attack rather than fear or anxiety, I agree with you.

My experience is limited to Playing infront of Friends and Family at Parties and some Acoustic open Mic Nights. I was very nervous at my first open mic and my main concerns were forgetting songs (like forgetting the next Chord, messing up or losing my place and having to start a section again) and my Voice sounding bad. Luckily though I scraped through and none of that happened, i've never had any major mess ups while playing for a crowd but i'm sure that's to come, ha.

Oh man, yeah it's the same with me, my voice is really bad when I'm nervous, I sing like shit. But once we do it over and over again it gets better and we sound more like ourselves :) Thanks for your comment Fractures
