food to avoid for singers who hving gig tmr!

ohhhhh man i got rocked on Johnny Walker Black Label friday night, the night before the StageFight comp my band was in. i woke up saturday morning with a hoarse voice and a sore throat. luckily it recovered by lunch time. *sheepish*
 
hahah..i dont know y bt tht walker's black label seems kinda common n...uhh...somewhat not "too healthy" hahahahah. some get so sick n tired of it tht they start seeing naked women riding pigs.
 
well...the tip is,drink lots of "cold" drinks 10 mins before a gig,not sodas but tons and tons of fresh juices or soy milk<<<it's the best!and it works wonders for my vocals!hahaa!try it for yrself!
 
I'd have second thoughts about soy milk... It's like milk - kind of affects your throat. Like causes it to be phlegmy or something along that line. Unless you're screaming?

wat if got high tide during the gig?
 
lol u should be drinking warm water! anything cold will cause your your vocal chords (or whachamightcallit) to contract, and u cant reach notes! warm water will cause the expansion if it on the other hand, thus easier to reach notes. and yah, milk is definitely something u shld avoid before a gig. it curdles in your throat and the next thing u know, ur screwed. lol.
 
my friends in choir say their choir mistress tells them to eat chilli.quite interesting. I was told to avoid chocolate and drink honey water, lol.with calamansi juice!
 
i always drink coke, smoke ciggs, swallow olive oil and eat fried food before going on stage. kinda the opposite of this topic huh. hahaha
 
i eat/drink nothing b4 gg on stage. coz i sing only 5 words per song on the average. mayb sometimes i take cocaine bt thtz sometimes. other times i just drink wine or whiskey. then some other times i take a lil bit of chewing gum to act cool. i wear bling2 too.
 
Yea, Johnnie's Black Label is kinda rough to down. Go for Chivas babeeh, smooth down your throat. On the rocks for that smooth feel to that fine whiskey. Honestly right, I play the guitar better when I get totally smashed. Or so my band thinks..
 
LOL great. my band has yet to try that. (nudges bandmates.)u guys can tell us if its successful during asian beat semis. hahahaha
 
B4 you sing .... Eat chillie Crab, Chocolate fondue, cheeseballs and sambal chillie Kang Kong plus Oyster Omelette. Eat what you like and pleases your tongue ... you don't get sore throat from these unless you are allergic or you eat it excessively. If you are, then abstain ... if you overeat, then you deserve a sore thoat.

At the end of the day ..... Drink more water ... do more warm ups (the pout lips and go like .... Brrrrr low to high to low thing) (And the Hissssss from your diaphgram thing) .... relax yourself.
