Guitar Solos with Good Stage Presence: Part 6

Video Transcript

ALEX BOYE: My name is Alex Boye, here on behalf of Expert Village, making a video on how to not suck onstage and how to have stage presence. We're talking here to Sterling. We've just had a few run-ins or workshop experiences with Sterling and we're trying to help Sterling come out of his shell. He's a good looking boy, he's very talented but we can hear his talent but we can't see it, so now we want to show it; we want to show it to them. Before he was playing like this, sounds amazing, but I'm sitting there in the audience and I'm like, "Dude, I ain't feeling that." So, I want you to try that again, alright? But this time, you are the soloist! You are the lead singer! You're the back up singer--you're everything right now, at that point! The song is 3 minutes long, alright? You got 30 seconds. If this is the last time you ever going to perform and you're going to die tomorrow, how was your performance going to be? Okay, now we need to go and give it to them, begin a solo. [OVERLAPPING] Yeah. Alright, okay, okay. There was a big difference from what he did before when he was just like, you know, like they have [INDISCERNIBLE] on Robert Plant. Gonna what? Unless you got a nice dress and you're [SOUNDS LIKE] can fly over with lipstick. You know what I mean? The guy has to work. You got to work, alright? So, look at the--I told him, I said, if you look at the audience, you look at one person and you play, that person will melt. You're killing him 'cause what you're telling him is, "I'm the boss, alright? I am the boss. I run this show. Not a lead singer, he's drinking his water. I am the boss! I run this show!" And you walk around and say--and this thing here, this pedal thing here, don't worry about it! You know what? Most audiences don't even care. They don't even know what this is. Every time, everyone, they were after, don't worry about it, okay? You are the boss, not this special effects pedal. Okay? So, I'm going to come on the other side, we're going to talk a little bit more about how to be a soloist, as a solo singer alright? So we'll see you on the other side. Peace!
