Hello everyone,
Has a floor singer Im used to distraction.So I shut my self off to it. shut my eyes ,ears try to focus on the song and picture in my mind some vision to help me muddle through I then awaken and come back to the audience when Im finished looking bewildered and happy that I finished the song .
Thank the audience for there patience and retire to me beer.

Yeah Yeah Pierre I hear you say but has posted out earlier not everyone can do that.
Which I appreciate. I have worked with the public for by on 30 years.

I am gonna give you an idea. that I do that helps Me.
I finger-pick Streets of London   with Black Sabbath blaring out on my hi fi. at the same time
With complete concentration focused on the mood I explained above I try to endeavor to play the song without mistake.

I have found that if you find
your own distraction and blank it out it helps, Not fool proof mind.
Regards to all Pierre
