So, in a month my band will be playing it’s first concert.

It won’t be anything really big, an outdoor underground 3 day festival, with 100-300 people attending, but still it seems like a big step for the band, and for myself as a musician I guess

And as far as one of my bandmates had already played some gigs (and he’s really a pro player) and the other one has always had a kind of crazy--no-care-for-anything attitude, I’m kinda scared ****less, because I’ve never done gigs before, I haven’t even played in front of anyone else than my friends/bandmates, and for sure my playing skills are the worst out of our trio (or quartet, if we count the drummer, who isn’t really IN the band).

I was wondering whether the ones of you who might have some experience in playing live, might give me some advice as to how deal with stage-fright?
