Stage Fright can only work against you as a gigging band or solo artist so I was interested in this find. I havent seen the site before but it's a good read about overcoming stage fright.
There are a number of useable tips.
For example:
1. Having a “pen” name to separate yourself from the performer you want to be. This can free you up mentally/emotionally and help you shake the chains of stage fright
2. Faking confidence (’til you make it). The very act of pretending to behave the way you want to feel (confident), will in time make you feel confident.
3. Imagining succes. Not only will this “programme” you to succeed but having “seen” success ahead of time, performers will be more relaxed about the event when it comes around. Only proviso here would be to to start the imaginings well ahead of the event. Otherwise you can get too uptight when you think about it.
4. Prepare well. Personally I would also recommend preparing for what you’ll do if things do go wrong and having some “off the cuff” remarks you can fall back on in case you “dry up”
