I was trying out for a solo and I know all the words and i can dit every note but i cant sing in front of people it scares the hell out of me. But i just am upset I really wanted to be the lead soloist and all of my close friends say i am good and i could have made it. How can I get away from stage fright?!?! Last time I was doing a performance I past out back stage. I am mortified. None of the underwear tricks work. of course i dont know if you have stage fright your self or anything but, you seem more umderstanding of these nasty little worries.

Those underwear things never really helped me either. One thing I try to do is imagine the audience is actually not there. Like no one is around. Or I try to imagine that they are all with me on the stage and singing with me. One thing that stage fright says to me is that you don't believe in yourself. If you practice in front of your mirror and then family and then friends, you will slowly get more self esteem and then when you get in front of more people, if you know any of them, just imagine you are singing to only them, just like before. You can still be a lead soloist. Anything is possible. Just keep you self in check. Keep practicing even if you get it right. There is a saying that I heard once. "Practice until you can't get it wrong" A lot of people practice until they get it right and then they just celibrate and are finished. Then when they perform they mess up. The key is to practice until you get it right, and then remember what you did, and practice it right a bunch of times until you have it so memorized you can't mess up. I hope I helped, and remember, my inbox is always open. [ deathwillcome's advice column | Ask deathwillcome A Question ]
