I tried to record some sound from my new guitar the other day. I would sit here playing one of my songs through before I hit the record button, and I would play it flawlessly, with a groove and a swing and it sounded great. Then I hit record, and within 5 seconds of playing I fucked up. Every fucking time. I think I should have just got drunk

I used to have issues like that. These days, nerved/pressure don't bother me. I'm also (usually) fairly practiced before recording or performing.

It's not like I was nervous. I was the only one here. And this is songs that I can play in my sleep. Maybe I was too baked off the weed LoL

Thus the / - nerved/pressured. You put the pressure on yourself. "Gotta play it right! I'm recording. I want it to be a good recording. It being a good recording is important to me. Getting it right will save time and energy. I want others to hear what I hear in my head, so I have to record it right."

That sorta shit. The inner dialog we have with ourselves.

You're good to go, until you hit the record button... At times like that, it's best to just not hit the record button (for me).
