Help onTransition playing seated vs Standing
I normally play and sing seated on a stool. When I am seated I don't normally wear a strap. Lately I have had the opportunity to play a few open mics where everyone stands to perform. I find that I am much less comfortable standing. Bar chords are more difficult and my mic technique is not as good. I do wear a strap at these events and position the guitar at the same height as sitting, but still can't seem to get used to it. Sometimes I even feel like I am going to fall into the mic. I am 6'4" and always have to adjust the mic, but still feel awkward. So, any hints on how to overcome? Or should I just bring my collapsible stool and play the over 60 card. Lol.
