Miriam Makeba - Pata Pata (Live 1967)

7. I was scared to death for the

first thirty years. My heart would pound so hard when I auditioned that I felt everyone could see my temples throbbing! But somehow I managed to enjoy the performance after a bunch of rehearsing. I even went through a spell where I had terrible stage fright and stopped performing altogether, not sure what the was all about.

But now I don't mind any of those things that used to terrify me, go figure.

And with my other art, I have it all over the place in my home because I'm not a marketing person, I have no idea of how to market my artwork. When someone kindly tries to set me up with ways to go about it my eyes glaze over and roll to the back of my head, algebra will produce a similar effect.
