@meaty_nosebleeds -Thank you kindly. :)

@WGS - I'm thrilled that you approve WGS. :) The play is a bucketload of fun, the performance days are just creeping up really fast!

@meaty_nosebleeds - I am indeed! :D First time back on stage since high school (a LONG time ago now) and I'm loving it. I've got about four small, but entertaining, parts.

Lucky you! Acting is terrifying for me I always got blocked and "whiteminded" (do not know how to say when you forgot every single line in your text) public speech in general terrifies me xD
On the other side my wife always tells me that I should be doing tv ads because I'm sometimes super-expressive with both voice and gestures. hahahahaha

Have fun with your lines and the acting ^^

I like those skulls, specially love the tooth

@Maenas - Thanks! The term is "going blank" when you can't remember your lines/speech. Fortunately public speaking has never worried me. I'm relatively shy in new social settings, but I'll happily get up and give a speech to a crowd of strangers or make a fool of myself on stage. Odd, but true.

I thought it was stage fright lol. I tried to audition for the part of Gambit at Universal Studios once and had to give a one minute monologue. I spoke for 20 seconds, forgot everything I was suppose to say, then apologized for wasting their time and excused myself rather promptly. Didn't help I tried remembering a monologue in like 1 hour of prep time lol.

@Digga - Awesome that you got to have that experience though. "Stage fright" is when you freeze and everything vanishes "going blank" is more specifically forgetting your words.

Well I will take it from you as you seem to have more experience than I do in the matter :) Looking back I just wish I was more prepared and didn't have that horrible feeling in my gut while trying to perform lol.

I always found background parts easier, no lines to remember. Got to play a rock monster last year in a strontium dog movie great fun and one off the bucket list

@WGS - The smaller roles do take the pressure off. I have some lines, but it's been a fun way too get back into theatre. From the sounds of things your bucket list may have all sorts of fun things going on. Glad it's one item shorter. :)

@Sicks - Thanks. :) It must be so much fun being able to play an instrument. I'm envious. But in a good way. :)

Its fun when I can find time for it lol, it's hard finding an hour when there's no kids to look after and no one's asleep, especially when I usually want to paint these days, it's never too late to learn though so maybe one day you'll be able to take up an instrument

The wife and I take turns. At the moment she is playing Granny Weatherwax and I am looking after the kids/painting. I also sing in a little barbershop group but one of the members has obscene work commitments so we don't get nearly enough practice time in to actually do anything.
Still, it's a bit of fun on a Monday evening.
