Ha I've played in front of some big crowds in my time and while I used to always get the nervous anticipation jitters, nothing is like standing in front of your amp, in a room full of guitarists, some of whom you know very well, trying to play something without fecking it up... :mental:
The older I get, the more disappointed in myself I become.
