They want to space out and dance-creep on girls.
That was a discouraging lesson for me to learn! Especially when you've spent so much time and effort practicing and preparing to perform that live. My recommendation would be to find a gig at a Hookah Bar. Seriously! People sit around, smoking and socializing, and actually listen to your music. Its a great place to refine how you make your mark on your music.
