I think there's a big difference between "wanting" to go on satge and being "afraid" to go on stage... Yer gonna have to do some serious soul searchin' to see where you really are...

If it's afraid then this can be dealt with...

But Clinton is correct is sayin' if you truely don't want to perform, then don't...

I kinda think that most folks who fiddle with instruments have a deep down desire to share their music or get to a point where it is sharable...

If after you've done your soul searchin' and you find its fear and nerves then retitle the thread and maybe those of us who do parform with some degree of regularity will share some stories about how they overcame those initial fears and insecurities...

No matter, keep playin'...
