I know it's difficult but try not to look nervous. I have just participated in the Netional Competition of Norway, For Young Musicians, and what made that i didn't winn, was the fact that i looked too nervous. If you can your song, you don't have any reasons to be nervous, and it will just go fine. You have to know that people sitting there and watching you play can't do it better than you, and how ever it goes, you should be setisifid if you did you're best.
Lots of luck!!!

Re: BEST SELLING BANDS UK versus USA (5 replies, posted in Bands and artists)
This is what I found, BUT DO YOU AGREE OR NOT THAT'S THE QUESTION (Source = 50% Shakespeare).
UK All-Time Best Selling Albums
1. Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band - The Beatles (1967)
2. (What's The Story) Morning Glory - Oasis (1995)
3. Brothers In Arms - Dire Straits (1985)
4. Bad - Michael Jackson (1987)
5. The Immaculate Collection - Madonna (1990)US All-Time Best Selling Albums
1. Eagles: Their Greatest Hits, 1971–1975 - Eagles
2. Thriller - Michael Jackson
3. Led Zeppelin IV - Led Zeppelin
4. The Wall - Pink Floyd
5. Back in Black - AC/DC
Yep, the good old AC/DC sold sold more than 200 million albums worldwide, including about 69 million albums in the United States AND "BACK IN BLACK" alone 42 million units worldwide AND 22 million in the United States only. I was really surprised. The "seniors" here do they remember the "almost a war" after BON SCOTT died? I remember very well the discussions AND disputes about their new singer BRIAN JOHNSON. It took a while before he was accepted by the fans, even after BACK in BLACK.
Are there still discussions about which of them is the best? Probably not.
Probably that list isn't satisfying a lot of chordians, so come on what do you think? Where are the Stones, Presley, DARK SIDE OF THE MOON?
I think that the US list looks quite well. I have all of these albums, and even though i am just 15 years old, i listen to these. They are classics, and people still by them. I am not suprised by the fact that Back in Black is on 5th place. Come on, who hasn't heard Back in Black?!
Thank you for writing this, it was interesting seeing it. :)
