allighatt0r Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 Wear sunglasses, that way you can close your eyes while singing and not look like too much of a plum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] ha ha nah. I have to make eye contact with the other players, whomever they may be, to give them clues about how the arrangement may go, and read the word clues from my floor mounted crib sheets (cant afford a lyric monitor like Springsteen has) Anyway I'm happy looking audience member directly in the eye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldGit Posted July 2, 2010 Author Share Posted July 2, 2010 Well I distracted myself and my equally nervous guitar playing friend with banter and small talk whilst the house band warmed up with a slow blues or too and then we went for it. It was fine, we borrowed one of the more experienced guitarists and the House drummer (bad leg, acerbic wit, fake US accent) ... and we stormed it Our Texas shuffle stomp version of Kiss had everyone seat dancing and singing along and my original was very well received too.. All in all well pleased and boy do I want to sing lead again, I'm even tempted to draft in a bass player next time the power, the [i]power![/i] Nurse! OG's caught LSD!!
