Stage Fright

I'm preparing the students in English IA for their Personal Experience Speech.  The first part of the unit deals with controlling stage fright, a subject I know a lot about.  I've been referencing many personal experiences where I've dealt with stage fright . . . some were from public speaking situations; some were from teaching situations, and some were from "back in the day" when I performed in a successful band.  After talking about the band so much, I shared one of our original songs with the students today.  It's a bull-riding song called "On the Devil's Back," and I thought I'd share it with you too.  Since this blog program won't let me upload audio only, I made a video with a title slide.  I hope you enjoy the song.
