I was just in a discussion last night with someone asking me how to have good time when playing in a band. I also try and exit my own head and try to watch myself playing. This puts me in the head of a listener listening to the whole band at the same time.

Of course if I don't know a song/piece/tune well enough this is harder to do. "What does the music need now?" I ask myself. Imagine watching a live performance but you can will one of the musicians to do whatever you want. That's where I try to get to.

Willing an arm away might not be such a good idea for me, though.
