For those who perform..

So my band got a কোঁচ, gig to play in less than a week, and it's going to be a big crowd. We've only ever played in front of a few people, so this is really important for us.
But I'm incredibly shy. I play guitar, and whenever we play I just stand there, and I can't look at the audience.
Anyone got any tips for having better stage presence? I'm so nervous :[

Oh darling, don't worry. I'm in performing arts, (you know, অভিনয় and music,) so I've picked up some tricks. Remember, আপনি don't have to do all of these, but they help. If আপনি want, try them out, see which ones work for you.

Before আপনি go on:
1) Get something to eat about an ঘন্টা অথবা so before আপনি perform. It saps your energy if আপনি perform on an empty stomach.
2) While standing, ক্রুশ your ankles like you're about to turn around. ক্রুশ your wrists. then turn them so your thumbs point to the ground. Interlock your fingers. Then twist your wrists inward so your knuckles rest against your chest. Close your eyes, and concentrate on nothing but keeping your balance. It may take a few tries at first, don't worry. Do this for 20 সেকেন্ড to a minute. This exercise helps with calming nerves and concentration.
3) Before going on, shake your wrists out. This helps loosen your wrists up, which would be especially good for a guitarist.
4) While backstage, dance around like আপনি don't have a care in the world. Smile while you're doing it, this is something আপনি can really have fun with. This should help get nervous energy out and boost your confidence.
5) Before আপনি go on stage, take a deep breath.

Onstage:
1) When আপনি get onstage, start with a big smile. I don't know how, but this always helps.
2) While playing, don't think about the audience. Go through the performance just like another rehearsal. Take deep breaths if আপনি start to feel anxious. Always remember to breathe.
3) Don't look down at the crowd. That'll just raise your nerves. Try to find a point to focus on in the back of the house (the part of the theatre the audience is in). That way আপনি don't focus on the crowd, and আপনি won't be blinded দ্বারা the stage lights. If আপনি want, আপনি can always focus on your guitar, but if আপনি keep your head up, that says "I feel confident!"
4) I doubt আপনি would be playing in a band if আপনি didn't প্রণয় making music. This is something আপনি love, enjoy it! Above all, have fun with this. It's your performance. If আপনি have a solo, just rock out! Do not be afraid to dance. Again, smile. Laugh if আপনি want. Focus on the music, আপনি will feel great!

I hope this all helps, please tell me. As theatre people say, "Break a leg!" Have fun!
