To me, yes. I play because I enjoy it. I have to like the way I sound to myself, or I'm not going to enjoy it. And I believe I'll sound better to the audience if I can really get into the music. Maybe its the difference between pro and amatuer?

I wasn't trying to make that point, only that the actual SOUND may not be translated to the audience.
(If it made ME more confident and comfortable, I'd slather the sucker with white latex housepaint!).
Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still grow, but only to be troubled and insecure?
