[Harp-L] Stage presence as per Iceman

[dennis moriarty <dmoriarty@xxxxxxxxxx>]

  Iceman said: "Stage presence means "owning your space" while  
performing". Man that's clear and simple and terrific!      Iceman  
said "Learning how to "not play" on stage is valuable
and as  important as what you do while playing. Both eventually become  
the whole ":   Some observer (probably the only one to look) commented  
on a youtube video of me and a band I work with: "Dennis, did you lose  
some change down there?" because I kept fidgeting in my harp case  
below me and bowing my head when not playing.     The truth is  
sometimes I fill up with so much emotion when up there grooving within  
a minor keyed song that I feel like my head or heart or something is  
going to crescendo (I was going to say orgasm). That like a lot of  
great things is both beautiful and terrible because It's also the oint  
when I paralyze a reed with my enthusiasm. d
