Sorry I can't.
I've only done 3 gigs (4, couting Den Haag with Heather), so far and never felt nervous about it. When I played with Heather, I thought I wasn't nervous because I was not playng my own songs. but finally, it's just the way I am.

Think of a setting in which you're confident playing your songs. When you get on stage, focus on your strengths and how confident you've felt performing in that place. It's still your same voice and music.
Granted, I'm no musician, but this has worked for me in social situations. I get nervous in front of large crowds but am often great with smaller groups, so I try to treat the large crowds as if they were small groups, basically. It worked last time, anyway, when leading a discussion about a sensitive topic with a crowd of more than 50 people.

Have you performed since the last time you told me about, back in March or so I think it was?

Woow! Have fun, sugarbaby! Simply believe in yourself and your love to music. Feel like being at home! And even when a few people don't like your music or even don't understand your songs, it's their problem! So there is nothing that can go wrong!

First of all congrats for this chance, Verena!
 I' m so pleased for you!! But it' s, of course, absolutely comprehensible that you are a bit nervous. I wish you all the best for tomorrow evening. When will the gig start? I will think of you and send you all my positive vibes.  Verena, your voice is wonderful and you are a very charming person! The stage is surely a place where you belong. And I' m sure that you will do your best tomorrow evening. Well, and just read my below listed signature ...

Once you get going and the crowd hears how good you are and gets into the music, your fears will dissipate! You'll not want the night to end.
Good luck!

Thank you all very much for your answers.
The gig will start at 7 o' clock in the evening. Thank you all for your good vibes! I'm very happy about it.. I'll only play my own songs - I thought about covering Heathers "Everything Changes" but I'm not sure. It's a song that I really like. A song that helps me through dark and sad times in my life. I love this one. Maybe I'll play it as a special encore. It's not a big place in which I'll play it's a café and the half of the crowd will be my family and friends *smile* So I think it will be good and I love to play my music - everyday - everytime. And I hope someone in the crowd loves my music too, beside my friends and family ...So thank you all for your kind words!  I'll post a few pictures the next days - maybe a video too ...All the best wishes and lots of love. Verena

Oh, I forgot : good luck.
Well, if family and friends are there, it will be easier (more claps and stuff). To Cass : I played twice in June. Probably more in the monthes to come.

Hello, my gig was very good - everybody was happy to hear me live, I think. After the little concert a lot of people came along and they said that I have a nice voice and they spread out their thanks.
It was a good feeling to play in that little café. A lot of people I love were there, that was a good feeling too. I played I think 10 own songs. And the special encore was 'Everything Changes' ...I will post a few videos this weekend hopefully. Here are some pictures from yesterday. Hope you like them.

Nice !
I only played in frnt of unknown people, so far (apart from my husband who was there each time). I think having a audience taht knew you etwaited for you helped. Maybe some of your friends already knew your songs ?

Nice you've enjoyed it, Sabsi.
There is a new song online, I've written last year...a very personal song - for my Grandpa - he passed away 20 years ago.  So, this is a song, very close to my heart. I can't believe it's 20 years :( So, here is the song, for everyone who's interested in listening.Myownmusic
