overcome my stage fright

A lot of my goals on this list are dealing with music. The biggest goal i have to work towards is losing my stagefright. All throughout out high school I had no problem performing in front of people. I was the lead in plays and would sing and dance without fear. I don’t say this in a bragging way but this is how I was. I loved it! So its been a few years since then and I have not performed at all. I started taking voice lessons again because i realized i need to perform to be happy. It’s what i love. I want to simply go out on a weekend and sing music to those who will listen and enjoy. Last May I had the chance to sing a song with a friends band. I thought it would be no problem. I’ve done it a hundred times. Something happened along the long road, I lost my confidence. It was horrible, I was scared, nervous and wanted to throw up. My performance was a mess due to this. I know i have so much more to offer, it’s just now when I step in front of people I lose it. I’m ready to rid myself of this stupid insecurity. Let you know when I do.
