This is especially true at festivals. Chances are you're the only one who's gonna care what you do wrong, so just try to enjoy it.

This is really quite reassuring, thanks

I guess you first need to „make it” to be able to get away with that

Of course it feels like a big deal, it's your first gig. It is a big deal, in a good way. I have no advice to add beyond what people have said already (I've never played a gig anyway) but congratulations on getting to preform your music!

If where you live allows it you should get an open carry permit and wear a gun where it will be clearly visibly to the audience. That should boost your confidence.

Sadly, here in Poland you’re not allowed to have a gun at all

But great tip nevertheless
