One thing that scares you…

…is a philosophy that Tony and Faro started following years ago for Duende Project shows.  “Always try to do one thing that scares you on stage…” means doing an improvisation, an arrangement never done live, a revamped poem with revamped music…something untested and untried to keep things fresh.  This past weekend, at the Jazz Fest, the four piece band did an arrangement of “Maya And Aztec” that we’d never even rehearsed together — all of us working out our parts separately.  Little things, but they keep us fresh. We might fail, but it’s the only way to grow.

Do you ever try to do “one thing that scares you” on stage…or in life?  Drop us a comment and let us know.  Love to spread that spirit a bit…
