Hi Rosie. Just listened to the clip. Sounded good to me! Now why do you have mike fright?

Glad you enjoyed it! As to the mike fright...part of it is just that I'm not as good as Jim and Bill, so I'm already a bit self conscious. And then...I start paying attention to what notes I'm playing instead of just playing without thinking about it...and I get tangled up and lose my place or play the wrong notes. If I relax, I'm fine, but I tense up! I'm a lot better than I was...I guess performance is another skill to practice - it's more than just playing.

Sounds like you need to quaff a pint before you play!!
