I think the worst I ever did was when I was younger and was with my first band, I kept thinking wow Im doing really good at this maby Ill be in a magazine sometime soon and would just start thinking about what I would say or the endorsments that I would be getting and before I would know it I was way off the beaten path and everone would just be stairing at me.

No worries about missing a beat or dropping a stick. Even if it happens it really isn't too bad, trust me, I have dropped sticks in the middle concerts (mostly due to nervous sweat cause the stick to become slick). You tend to become more comfortable and gain confidence the more you play in front of people such that the fear and even the reality of dropping a stick or missing a bit no long seems quite as life threatening/shattering. You'll do well, you will.

What happened when you dropped those sticks in the middle of the concert? Did you try to play it off or did it end up being a disaster?

That's what hat mounted stick holders are for.
