This tip comes from Chris Standring, whose GuitarMadeSimple program... well, does what it says on the tin!
While learning theory and practicing all of the techniques you need to try to get your sound 'out there' are obviously critical, Chris' article goes into the importance of the level of control you have over your guitar, and of the relationship between guitar and player.
This is by no means a technical tip, but one that you should read, think about, and remember when you get on that stage and prepare to play to your audience.
Check out the tip at this link: Take command over your Instrument ( Chris Standring )
Enjoy your music,
