Dave O, probably the same way I did from 1982 to 1999. Real life got in the way.I forgot to say in my previous posts that the feeling never goes away. Not only that, but it is different each and every time - even if the venue remains the same. Every audience, no matter the size, has its own collective personality, aura, or whatever you want to call it.
I guess one of the hardest things is to perform before people who are basically ignoring you.
