you also ten to rock it straight metal at times as well.Dog wrote:I'm pretty fortunate in that, I have 7 members in the band... I know the songs well enough to where I don't need to e'en think about 'em. If, on the off chance I play somethin' wrong... I can jus' stop, an' if anyone notices, it's usually only someone *in* the band.
I find myself with my eyes closed far too often as well. Or staring just above the crowd or at the lights.. Which I *try* to avoid.. Not so much though. I tend to pay attention to singing more. There's some stuff we do.. that I don't think I've ever used the same exact vocal melody on more than once or twice. Also, some o' the old irish shite we do has like... 7 or 8 verses sometimes.. s'alot goin' on, an' tellin' the story is kinda more important to me.

good question...I spend about 30% thinking about the song and the rest is a bunch of BS...the last time on stage I remember thinking what time I had to pick my son up from the babysitter and if I would have enough time to do a couple loads of laundry and the dishes. I also say little one liners to hot chicks in the crowd...plus I ask for a drink at least twice a set for a "social."
