nervous?
Nervousness is a strange feeling.
I remember when I first started to play keys at church, I was nervous every week - without fail. It was frightening stuff. But that was some 7 years ago or something. And now, playing keys or guitar in church just doesn’t phase me at all.
But tonight, a few of us jumped up at the Christmas Celebration night at church to do an item, and I was nervous like I haven’t been in years - heart beating, butterflies in the stomach; it was insane. Perhaps a combination of knowing that everyone was watching and listening closely, and that perhaps we weren’t as rehearsed as what we would’ve liked :) But it was just incredibly unexpected.
Still, it was great fun - we were just playing a Christmas carol, but at the last minute decided that it would be cool to try and not play it like it’s done every year, but rather, take advantage of the fact that it was an item and change the feel just a little. I think we kinda succeeded. Perhaps it can be refined a little more for tomorrow night.
Fun times though.
