Ego gets in the way of a lot of otherwise great preformers. I once saw a yo-yo/holahoop act at a summer program I went to, and while some of the things they did were pretty impressive, they acted like they didn't need to be there. Truthfully, I think we all would have prefered that- even I felt awkward from the lack of the group's usually defaning applause.
