Hehehe! That's just what I did. Last night was a show in Oakland with Bombshell Betty. It was a great time, actually one of the funner shows I've ever done. I was drunk. At a show I will usually not drink and if I do I have one, that's it. I want to make sure I do every think right, but mostly I don't drink because I have to work the next day and I don't want to over sleep or have a
hang-over.
What was different last night? Two things; one, my boss is out of town so even tho I have to go to work it's not as stressful, Yippee! Second, my dance is a fun one and has real line dance steps that I used to do back in the day. But the first time I performed the dance at the Elbo Room I didn't have fun and I could tell it wasn't a good performance. I wanted to relax a little and that little turned into a lot! Vodka/ 7up for some reason was the drink of the night.
I still get so nervous before I go on stage, sometimes I can't think, can't breath, I feel like I'm going to throw up, all kinds of craziness goes on. Last night, none of that was going on. I knew the dance (as I always do) and just didn't worry about it (as I always do) and I had a blast, the audience had a blast and nothing but good stuff happened.
Good stuff.
My boss isn't gone all the time so I need to learn how to be less nervous and more fun with out the booze.
