Stage Fright?

I've just been running over my material that I plan to perform tonight. I'm finding it really difficult to concentrate, my head is in such a spin!


I feel really under prepared, though technically I'm sure I'm far more prepared than I have ever been. It's hard because for the first time ever I am using a mix of old material, with a little new thrown in, rather than a completely new set. I don't feel it has the same energy, though it would be ridiculous to suggest that I should write new material for every gig I do over the next 4 weeks. The weirdest thing is, I don't feel nervous, and that worries me. It's nerves that keep me sharp and my reaction time at its peak, without them I fear I'll forget stuff and give a sloppy performance. Let's just wait and see how nervous I feel when I get there.

I have no idea who else is performing, it would be nice to see a familiar face.

I'm going to have one last run through then go grab a small bite to eat on my way to the Round Table Pub. 

I'll post an update on how it went as soon as I get back.
