Hey guys!

I have a gig tonight. It is not my first or anything (maybe 8th performance). Normally I wouldnt be very nervous, but this is no normal gig. Its a local band competition. Half my town + friends and my dad are coming to watch us (and 5 other bands) play this evening. Also we will be judged if we are good enough for the next round based on sound, composition, performance and technique. Eventually 8 out of 28 bands will make it to the semi-finals. I cannot even concentrate @ work right now sad.gif. Im really anxious to play, but also very nervous. Im affraid this will affect my playing in a bad way tonight. You guys got any tips to loosen up my mind, and prevent me from making mistakes or getting a blackout on stage hahah?tongue.gif

Greetz,
Zynex
