You are just so much better when you play by yourself or what? Is it just me?

That's just how it is with me too. I have occasional 1 on 1 lessons where there is really no pressure but when I'm showing how I've learned a tune I go to pieces! It's an elusive skill.

On my own I can play in time with a metronome and record myself playing a tune in one take fairly decently but when it comes to showing what I can do to others it all goes out the window :eek:

I'm convinced though that there'll be a breakthrough at some point and it'll all become second nature to me. In the meantime I'll keep on enjoying playing and learning.

Good luck!
