Subject: How do you deal with appearing in front of crowds?

I ask this because the girl's PE teacher in my school, (who is quite high up in the school) asked me about a month ago if me and some of the boys would like to perform a song in front of the school during the christmas assembly. We have now decided on this and our drummer is going to mention it to her on Monday. (I'm the guitar player).
I'm kinda nervous but I'm the one who's really been pushing it as I think that it would be really good. Our first practice is next week.

So Flood, how do you deal with pressure infront of crowds?

Camping like a 'mouth breather'
If Fed Ex and UPS merged into one company, would it be called Fed Up?

I don't want to start another account for a digital number that has no true value in ten years.

I don't really care, I may be slightly nervous before, but once I get up in front of everyone I don't mind it.

Boltshot = mini shotgun

For band concerts at school, I used to get really nervous . But then I got used to having to appear in front of my school, and by the time the SSP came around last December, I was fine with it.

I don't deal with it. Both my body and voice start shaking uncontrollably.

It's bloody annoying, I tell you.

Please stop complaining about the 'death of a loved one' it's my job. They probably deserved it anyways. Here's a warning, if you keep making pentagrams out of the neighbors livestock I will personally come to your house and kill everyone you love. Now leave me alone, I got to get back to work.

I just view them all as friends then I'm more comfortable.

Get a bit of eminem on the go before hand, then you're ready, feel the beat within you, let it take control. Once you start you won't stop

+1 for you good sir.

The hard part is getting started. Once you do, it's not so bad.

I just have the attitude of getting it over with, it helps if you are very invested in what your doing.

In my PA English class (first year college English course in senior year of high school)we had to give 4 speeches over the course of the year and i consistently made sure i had topics i was interested in. It helped a lot and it turned out i as much better at speaking than i was at writing about the topic.

-blam!- Was that actually blammed out? Or did I just type it? You'll never know.

I don't feel the pressure you are talking about.

I'm the same with my English speach. I don't know why I'm nervouse bcecause I smashed my English speach with an A*. I always just get a bit of a faster heartbeat before getting up there.

Caboose: "your a thing that babies suck on?"
Tucker: "no dude, that's a pedephile"
Church: "tucker, i think he means a pacifier"

I tend to speed talk in front of a crowd, but that's about it.

Thanks. I really dictated to them that we'd do that song. I just wasn't going to do the regular cheesy -blam!- people usually do.
