Do you ever wonder what I'm thinking when I'm on stage? Aside from the "they like me, they actually like me" thoughts I think weird stuff. About every 30 seconds I'm thinking "jump up and down". Then I might be thinking, "hey, was that a UT cow symbol or devil horns?" Most of the time I'm thinking, "What in the world is wrong with my equipment?" I can never seem to get the perfect sound that I get at practice. So during song breaks I'll be messing with my levels on my amp and trying to get it right. Sometimes I turn my solo channel up way too high and blow the audience away. It's noticeable so the second I hear it I stomp on my pedal to turn off the volume. "Is that girl in the audience putting her hands over her ears?"  One time I even broadcast the Emmett Smith halftime show through my amp while I was playing. It kinda reminder me of the movie "Spinal Tap"  Nowadays I'm trying to concentrate on getting what I play right. "Did I just mess up?" or "Did someone else just mess up?" At the end of our set I like to put the guitar behind my head and dance around. That's when I'm thinking a hundred thoughts at once. "Does my bum look big?" "Is my underwear showing?" "Did I just shake it like a schoolgirl?" "Maybe if I get on one knee the audience won't notice?" "Am I still in tune?" "Did I just moon the audience?"
 
Thought of the day
"You see this amp goes to 11. That's a good amp."
"Why don't they just make 10 louder? Then it wouldn't need to go to 11"
"Yeah, but these go to 11"
