[Yurn!]

i used to get the worst nerves ever before gigs, shaking and feeling really sick, that kinda thing. the more i got used to it the less nervous i got though, and now it just manifests itself in the form of having loads of energy and wanting to run around a lot beforehand. i don't get that feeling like the bottom has fallen out of my stomach any more, just excitement.
switching from doing bass and vocals to just vocals has helped a lot because i don't have two things to fuck up anymore.

I yawn a lot when I'm nervous for some reason.

Seriously, boot-cuts would look great on you. Have you thought of a bolero jacket?

I thought that too!!!

Marc, we're all set for conventional bassists, but we could use a third slap-bassaholic?

Maybe some eye-drops in their pint will get the panic flowing.

[george mcfly]

has anyone ever had to leave the stage to have a piss?

 

[george mcfly]

when i used to play in Estel, we were on stage once for an hour and fifteen minutes and i thought i was going to piss my pants

hee hee

I walk the line between getting really fuckin tired and being a ball of energy. The actual nerves dont kick in anymore though they used to badly. I was a shitter. Tronty million dumps before a gig. Now im down to 1. Go me.

I never feel like i need a piss when onstage, even if I feel like it beforehand. I do however, get a bit agitated if I don't have something to drink.

hee hee

yeah

public information: that eyedrops thing REALLY works though. My goodness my gutsness.

I don't get nervous, never did really, mostly just excited. I used to have to take a shit, but that doesn't happen anymore

if it's our gig or we're headlining i'm really jumpy and nervous and can't relax. if its a support and theres folk in the room, i'm fine, if a bit jumpy.
