I don’t disagree with any of what you have said - passion is what drives the desire to get it right. With regards the hands rising to the challenge - this is where the issue of heavy duty nerves rears its ugly head in the form of shakes and tension. Passion or no passion, this will kill a performance..

There was a true mom/pop music store in a little town in Kentucky called Knit-Pickers. She knitted and taught it, he picked and taught that. On my lunch hour I would go there and play one of his classical guitars and while away the hour just noodling. After some time passed her classes started getting bigger and she told me it was because the ladies were signing up for the free concerts every day. I suddenly felt under the microscope. But, I reasoned it out that I was just a PA system playing in the background and got over myself. I continued my noon visits and had fun with it. It did make me practice up more, though. On Saturdays local players would gather at noon and have a jam circle. Each person would take a turn with the lead while others held down the rhythm. That was another chance to break out the confidence and polish it up some. The exposure to informal live situations like jam circles whittles away at the anxiousness to where its very negotiable. It doesn't leave altogether. |
