I just can't imagine playing to crowds of several 10's of thousands........I think it would get too impersonal to really enjoy. My dream is STILL to play in some sort of band.....since I play no instruments, it would have to be as a vocalist........Jim Collins and I have talked about getting together to do something at some point, but it just hasn't happened yet.......I really hope it DOES pan out :) Rick in DC --part1_ca.188f696e.2895045b_boundary Content-Type: text/html; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Well, I've done the karaoke thing many a time (I usually do U2, Sting or REM songs)....can't speak for the volume and raw power effect, but I certainly got to admit I enjoy being on stage and don't really get too nervous in front of crowds.  I just can't imagine playing to crowds of several 10's of thousands........I think it would get too impersonal to really enjoy.

You unconsciously do everything in your power NOT to screw up and the result is often good or best. I haven't played in front of nearly as many people as Gary has but I've played for a few here and there.
