So I've got my first gig/performance/whatever you want to call it in about 2 weeks. its a one song spot in my schools annual "Talent Show" Called Rhythm and Rhyme. I put talent show in quotes because its specific for the schools poets and musicians. Do you guys have any advice for jitters, performance anxiety, best way to handle the performance? anything at all would be great.

Try to focus on putting all the emotions of the lyrics into the song. for me, when im focused on that, I focus less on the ''Oh God, Oh God, theyre all staring at me" part of performing.
