What operation is that?

Shades are almost always good. Look at Bono...He is a very rich man. :D Matt

Chris, i didn't mean to not talk on the day OF the gig, just the day before. The next morning you can talk or warm up, But I would still take it easy even then. Just to clarify. I have never actually tried it either, But my voice teacher suggested it and she rules so I thought I would pass it...

I took a vacation to FL, last year and hung out in St. Pete's for awhile. Went to that Salvador Dhali museum which was pretty cool, and also the pier was pretty neat too. Matt

Misterx, Think about what you do when you are really grooving to a good song all by yourself in the car or at home, you know when you are completely alone and you start moving around or going kind of crazy, That is what you should do because that is what is natural to you. People really want to...

I agree with Sean. As a crowd member I have always been on the side of the performer. Everyone wants you to do well, and see a man comfortable with is weight rocking away. I personally think John Popper is way cool. Although doing many live performances myself I know how self-concious I can be...

A couple other various tricks I have heard about are - Dont talk or make a sound the whole day before you sing (if that isn't possible because of a job or something just limit yourself to the bare neccessities (sp?) ) Force yourself to yawn a lot before you start singing, it is suppose to be a...

I agree with Knightfly. Most Church's will be glad to help you out by letting you use there equipment, IF you ask first. If it is cool to use it, try and figure out the make and model number (sound like I am talking about a vehicle or something) and get back on here and maybe we can help you...

LOL! That was the funniest thing I have read in a long time. Thanks Heylow. Matt

Nice! I liked the tune. the only comment I have, is it would be nice to have a short verse in there somewhere about why I should be going outside, it would be a nice change within the song and give it a little more depth lyricly IMHO. I know you don't stay on a song very long, and this would...

Neither the mixer you were looking at or the mixer I suggested actually records. They just improve the recording process. And as far as I can tell through the use I have gotten out of the Makie and as well as many other peoples feedback, it will be a mixer you will use as long as you are into...

I agree with Blackburn. i own a Mackie 1202 vlz pro, and it seems to be a really good buy. I got it on e-bay for around $210. There is also the Mackie 1404 which is the same thing with an extra couple input's if you need them. Check those out, I think that for what you are doing right now they...

Going up and down scales while buzzing your lips is a good way to relax your throat as well as kick in your support. The best way to warm up your throat is figuring out a way to relax it. don't do any warm-ups that you have learned that make your throat feel constricted or tired. start off using...

NICE Freakin B-day present! In my future right now, I don't see myself ever getting a b-day present over $8,000 dollars. :( Matt

$10- $15 Grand? Wow, that would pay off my car..... I wonder if they are actually worth it? I guess if I didn't score a major contract or something, I wouldn't think so. ;) Matt
