how to preserve voice before performing in a band?

Question:

Answers:
Everyone has a different idea of what works. I think it's just superstition more than anything. But I do know that if you are drinking alot and or smoking alot the night before when you wake up in the morning you will have a hard time hiting any kind of a range. And no amount of water or anything will help it. So just don't eat anything to heavy so your not gassy and don't smoke alot the day/night before. Besides if your a little dry but can still hit the notes the added rasp adds a little somthing to the song. As for names think of a favorate movie or song and steal a word from it. I've been singin for 10 years now I know what it's like to get all reved up then you can sing mary had a little lamb without cracking.

Other Answers:
Drink lots of water, stay hydrated that always helps your voice.
If you smoke dont. avoid flemy foods chocolate , orange juice, etc before you perform.
practice but dont over practice to the point of straining your voice.
Also good vocal technique always helps.

hmm...maybe you could include more info on ur band?like what genre of music you guys play?how many members yada yada...anyway,you should not shout or eat spicy food 1 week before the performance.also,do incorporate the habit of drinking honey mixed with water during these period.

Eating carrots will probably help.

i know an elder preacher who has been preaching most of his life, and he's one of those loud ones. He say after every sermon he stops at a 7/11 store and gets a pint of milk to drink for his voice. He has never had hoarseness.
Name of band-- Red Horse

stay away from cold drinks and drinking ginger juice can probably help.
