Hey guys,
I posted a similar message to this on the Steve DiGiorgio section of UM. This doesn't have to do with Opeth (or SDG) specifically, but how do you get past nerves live?
Being 14, I've only played live (alone) three times, and this is my fourth time playing live and second singing. I decided to cover Windowpane in the school talent show, and while my clean singing isn't that good, I've been complimented on my vocals for the song by quite a few people (Instead of trying to sing it like Mike does, I decided to sing in a doom metalish voice [think Candlemass, but a bit lower pitched])
The problem is that I was nervous to the point of shaking at auditions in front of about 10 people, and I'll be playing to about 300 people the day of the show. How do you get past this?
