I always have a stage fright before playing. Especially if someone I know well is watching... You know, you hear that little voice in your head saying; don"t mess up, don"t mess up... And then you do. Well, I do it the old fashion way...
A few shots of something hard. It looses me up. But I avoid beer cause it makes you wanna got to take a piss. And that causes problems...been there few times.
So, some southern comfort and off we go... Of course, that is probably not the best solution. But it is my way... ;)
