I face forward now. I did a transitional period where I sort of faced sideways for a little while though.
I'm pretty big on not talking to the audience though. I'm up there to play some music. I currently have the set constructed so that every piece segues into the next, with no pauses until the end. I think there's something to be said for doing your thing and getting out of the area. I do say "thanks" at the end, but that's pretty much it.
