New skill unlocked! I can play while asleep.

[mcnach]

Last night I was incredibly tired. First set was a struggle but managed. Second set... I found myself fighting my eyelids and a couple of times I had that feeling when you just nodded off for a few seconds and return... confused to find myself on stage playing. 

It wasn't my best performance but it worked.

Crazy. 😂

 

Has anybody else had similar experiences?

Once at our singer's house. Yes, a bit of booze was involved. Others woke me up, while I was still playing at that super soft sofa.

Nah, am still trying to master playing whilst awake 🤣

I did a dad joke about this.

 

Did you know I learn to play guitar while I sleep?

 

I’ve been fretting all night.

Not playing but I once fell asleep standing, I woke up...luckily... as soon as my body started falling forward.

It was after a very long day as work.

Not playing, but I fell asleep during a dive in the Red Sea once - Woodhouse reef, just drifting along in the current 15 metres down. Someone else's depth alarm woke me up.

Yep, it’s happened to me a few times, feels like you’re dreaming that you’re on-stage at a gig, then you wake up and you’re on stage at a gig. In my case they’re micro sleeps of literally milliseconds each time but such is the nature of sleep it can feel like a whole lot longer. Not risky on stage (starting to lose balance will wake you immediately) but f***ing dangerous behind the wheel where you don’t lose balance 😕

Yes, playing "Dance the night away".
