A few years ago at a festival here in Florida I was booked for a main stage set between sets by Roy Bookbinder and Sam Pacetti (Sam is easily the most crowd pleasing young finger-style guitar player in the State). While a bit nervous about being the evenings sacrificial lamb, I simply determined to rise to the level of the day and performed what was, up to that point, my best work. Turns out the set was recorded and used in a Public Broadcasting Documentary about Florida music. My advise is to accept the circumstance as an opportunity to rise above the butterflys in your gut, and shine!
