Ya know, I feel charged after a gig, but I think that Cocky is not a very good word to describe that feeling. Maybe a bit proud about how I provided a good time for people. But my playing, uhhhhhh. I'm almost never satisfied with it. When someone compliments me on a solo, I usually shake my head in dismay and dissagreement. And on the rare occasion when I've played to my satisfaction, you might hear something like, "I think I did alright," but nothing more.
I'm a pretty shy person when it comes down to it.
