Ronson may quit live performance
By CMU Editorial | Published on Thursday 30 September 2010
Mark Ronson has said that he may give up performing live on the grounds that it’s quite difficult and he’s getting on a bit.
The musician told The Independent: “I do try to focus on the music and not get caught up in all the other shit, but… Well, I’m 35. I’m probably in the last five years of performing on stage. That’s the ideal. To do well enough that you just don’t worry about dipping out of the game for a year and having everyone forget you”.
He added: “I get nervous before I go on stage because I’m not a born performer. I only started playing guitar three years ago and I only started singing, like, yesterday. I do think I throw obstacles in my own path, and ratchet up the neurosis that way. But there are worse problems to have, I think”.
