Have you Ever asked yourself should I play in front of a paying audience? Am I good enough or not confident, butterflies in your stomach, audience shyness, etc,?.......I thought this would be a good topic of conversation to hear what players are thinking who haven't played in front of a paying audience.......or is your living room as far as you want to go?

Or for those doing it a long time when did you know you were good enough to perform & sing in front of paying customers, dancers, etc,..what's your confidence mindset before you go on stage in front of a familiar audience vs a Cold new crowd?
