	Cornyassotta	Fear instills two reactions: fight or flight. And I'll bet you kicked ass!............Props!   Posted by Cornyassotta on Saturday, March 14, 2009 - 4:03 AM [Reply to this]

	yvonne Yvonne Moss	hope someone video taped! I ate and digested fear last summer when I spoke to about 50 people on a topic that I treasure. I ran from public speaking classes in high school. Yes, I put that fear to rest. Glad you ate one too! I'm sure it was amazing!   Posted by yvonne on Saturday, March 14, 2009 - 4:19 AM [Reply to this]

	- Bee-Ry -	What did R.E.M. have to say about your performance?   Posted by - Bee-Ry - on Saturday, March 14, 2009 - 5:32 AM [Reply to this]

	sarrrrrah	Although I haven't played any venues larger than the College of Staten Island recital hall, I can empathize to a certain small degree. I love how pre-show jitters seem to fade away with every breath exhaled. The best feeling during a performance is knowing that the fear has been totally conquered.........P.S. Kudos for the LOST. It becomes increasingly addictive!   Posted by sarrrrrah on Saturday, March 14, 2009 - 5:34 AM [Reply to this]

	Steve	What a vivid description, made me feel right in the moment! Kudos to you and R.E.M.   Posted by Steve on Saturday, March 14, 2009 - 6:55 AM [Reply to this]

	Amy Amanda Martin	as a concurrent musician, i am bewildered by the thought of the stage.......i cannot play in the presence of others.......maybe someday, the stength that flows through you veins may empower my weakness.......♥   Posted by Amy on Saturday, March 14, 2009 - 7:27 AM [Reply to this]

	hotnessa	beautiful!   Posted by hotnessa on Saturday, March 14, 2009 - 7:56 AM [Reply to this]

I spent the Summer of '93 in Cyprus driving around in the heat and the breeze listening to Automatic.........Life is made by these wonderful memories.......Perfect choice of song too... when can we hear it??............actually currently reading "Feel the Fear... and do it anyway" x   Posted by Steve on Saturday, March 14, 2009 - 8:04 AM [Reply to this]

	Erik Erik Frykman	SUCH a beautiful, wonderful and INSPIRATIONAL story... Thank you! Now, if only we could ALL get to hear you sing it... Peace and Love, ~ Erik   Posted by Erik on Saturday, March 14, 2009 - 9:28 AM [Reply to this]

	Rob	Awesome! I am certain you were amazing as always :)............As Mark Twain once said, "Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear...not absence of fear"   Posted by Rob on Saturday, March 14, 2009 - 9:29 AM [Reply to this]

	Midnight Rose	when will a copy be releases to your dying fans?????   Posted by Midnight Rose on Saturday, March 14, 2009 - 11:39 AM [Reply to this]

	Day-Dreamer	I hate that feeling of nervousness that comes before you face a task that frightens you...but that high, that sense of pride that soaks through every cell of your body when you walking away knowing that you've conquered is so worth it! You're fantastic Ingrid!   Posted by Day-Dreamer on Saturday, March 14, 2009 - 1:27 PM [Reply to this]
