How do you feel when you perform in front of an audience?

GREAT! AMAZING!

How do you see the musicians’ reality nowadays? What could be improved?

Artistes should stop lip syncing over their recorded songs on a live show. I believe it is wrong disrespectful to fans & disrespectful of the art of live performing. You must be able to prove that you were the one who did the song & the only way to do this is to sing in the microphone with no recorded song under your voice.

I think it's a wonderful idea well needed.

Not enough airplay also I need strong financial investment to really take off!

Tenacity, humility & a lot of money!
