Thanks to all!! Wow...this is a lot of great advice. I think I will save this thread. Where I have been playing is a folk club that gets together every week in the back room of a Mexican restuarant (a buritto before performing seems like a bad idea somehow. We call ourselves a "listening club" and people are sorta made to listen. Maybe thats why I get nervous!!! Maybe I need to play somewhere where folks aren't listening!!! It'd be just like being alone in my basement....(where I ROCK by the way!!!)

like the old line says if a man says something in the woods and a woman is not there....is he still wrong?
