had to happen

The day of our first rehearsal and my first time singing in front of the rest of the band, and I wake up with a cold and a sore throat.

This is the universe taking the piss again, isn't it?

I find that after a warm-up having a sore throat doesn't affect me too much. I lose a couple of notes from the top of my range and (oddly enough) a couple right in the middle, but it's none too bad at all.

I also recommend Dutch Courage... I sing better when relaxed. YMMV, of course :)

Good luck!

I had notes I just couldn't find, and I lost a lot of my flexibility. Once I warmed up though, it was a lot of fun.
