That 4 fret distance needs to be covered by assigning your fingers across the total fret-space, so that each finger gets a fret to itself.

http://www.reddit.com/r/Guitar/comments/jl8lj/im_going_to_start_playing_live_shows_what_do_i/ Me and a few friends have started a band, we've been practicing, and we're going to play a few local shows within the next few months with other local bands. Having only played in garages and living rooms and the like, what kind of things should I know as far as setting up onstage, sound, and so on? If this has been asked already go ahead and direct me there.

So far, I have taught myself how to play regular rock-standards (e.g., The White Stripes) with correct finger-picking and actual song tempo.
