Real People Are Scary
It’s been good to see signs of life on the playing live front. Various people I know doing what they do best. Still haven’t managed it myself yet, but my time will come, and there are irons in the fire.
I’ve personally never been able to play regularly enough to become as comfortable as I’d like performing to an audience. It’s always a bit of a “wing and a prayer” and a “faith over sight” kind of experience.
Maybe for that reason the first time back won’t feel any different than normal, despite the long wait.
Playing to a computer screen is surreal.
But real people can be scarey.
