dry hand sweaty hand

Normally during concerts I always start with something simple to break the ice and warm up. It helps me, as I have written in other posts, also to handle a hot water bottle to warm my hands and moisturize them with the natural perspiration that results from the heat. Usually, by the time I get on stage, I arrive with warm hands and break the ice with something simple that gets me off to a good start. Once the ice is broken, you hope the concert never ends. You are already inside the music.
