Bongoceros,Saludos
Everything here has been said.All inputs are great. Neftaly I agreed 100% with Raymond,try to record the tunes you play with your Band and then play them and practice over and over. That way when you get to the stage don't matter who is watching ,you will perform in accordance with the tunes you have been practicing. Last Fryday when we were playing at the Club, somebody was watching me and the rest of the percussion players,he told me was a percussionist and have various instruments but I did not care who he was or play with,I have a job to do and since I did my homework,I was ready. With time and a lot of practice you will develop your own style as Raymond said. I work as a Dj in a Club Fryday nights if I am not playing with my Guerrilla so I see many Bongoceros which I watch playing not to critique but to see their technique,copy what I like and learn,no one play the same way,everyone has his own style and that is what add to the band the flavor,in this case your own. Just relax,drink some good RED WINE to flavor your Soul and hit the stage with confidence. Raymond,I saw you the other day playing with Prodigio Claudio on channel Six .That guy really knows how to pay that 4.
