My first live performance?

Question:In less than three weeks, I'll be performing an original song on guitar and singing. It's my first performance, and I'm nervous. Do you guys have any tips? It's an acoustic performance, by the way. Thanks!

The first time I performed I was a bit nervous, too. Try not to think too much about the people, just concentrate on your vocals. Pretend it's an empty room. Also, most of those people are probably either your friends, who support you, or total strangers who you'll never see again, anyway. Try to relax a bit before the performance, read a book or listen to relaxing music. I'm performing tomorrow, and I'm nervous, too. But when I get on stage, I deliver. I hope I helped!

dont worry bout it, i can tell ur gonna do great

I know how embarrassing it is! Just smile take deep breaths and sing your heart out! Good Luck Hope I helped!

My advice is don't think, just get out there and do it. You have played this song hundreds of times before, this time is no diffrent. The people in the audiance don't matter, just do what you do and it will be good. Remember THEY came to watch YOU, because they know you are going to put on a good show.

The first preformance...yikes! This brings back memories from over 7 years ago at my first preformance. It is normal to be nervous. Just don't think about the people watching you so much, or imagine the people in the audience are your closest friends or family members. That always works.
