I'm very nervous and when I'm practising im finding myself a little short of breath compared to normal when singing? Any advices guys?
Slow down and breathe, It is naturally to go at a faster pace when playing live. Concentrate on the fun part.
Remember that nervousness is natural and makes your performace have some intensity and punch, so don't freak out about it. Try and enjoy the feeling of the adrenelin and look at it as your friend. Get to the gig a little early and talk to some of the audience if you can. Stay away from alot of caffine (dehydrates your vocal chords anyway) Breath Slow and Deep. I never play a difficulut song first, Play something easy that folks like so you can get into the rythym.
Every once in while I start like a runaway freight train and it takes me a few songs to throttle back. Enjoy!!!!
