I don't think I really get nervous when I play-- I'm too busy hoping that our bassist doesn't forget the chorus and the pianist plays the intro sequence correctly...
...But for my auditions/competitions, there was definitely a bit of nailbiting.

I've made WAY more than one mistake, but I just pretend that I meant to do that.
"What? You don't like that G# in that G major chord? That harmony's just to hip for you..."
Of course, what I do might not work for you, I'm rather sarcastic and cynical, pretty wierd, and apparently I have a bad taste of music for a 17-year old.

I am definitely more nervous when playing with my Wind Ensemble than I am when I play with a rock or jazz band...
But I suppose it depends...What style of music are you playing?
