OP here. Yes, I know the material, and would never put myself in a position of wondering otherwise.
Mental preparation is critical. Of course, it is all about attitude, once you have the material down. Your pal is right. You got to own it all - the material, your guitar and the crowd. I know that feeling from my other musical work. I will get there with the guitar. That is why I do the open mics. Just to skin my knees....
As always, obliged for the replies and wisdom.
