Hi peeps!
Went to a jam last weekend to perform a couple of songs with this Keith Urban cover band I just started. The performance went really well and lots of people who are really really great musicians complimented me on my playing. They approached me, not the other way around. And they didnt have to that if they didnt mean it. They actually asked me to come down to play more often.
The problem tho is that I was really nervous before entering the stage so I had 6 beers to calm me down. I ended up quite drunk but at the same time really relaxed and that night it really improved my ability to perform (no its not just in my head. It sounded really great). On the other hand I dont wanna get drunk every time I join in on a jam. Btw I do not have a drinking problem.
Have any of you had a similiar experience? And if so..how did you get to perfom at the same level sober?
