To add to all this: I don't sing as well as I might up to two hours after a meal; up to three hours after a night's sleep; up to eight hours after a long hot run. But if I am careful about what I eat and drink I can usually perform within a half hour or so; the night's sleep not only produces the wrong kind of mucus, but one can get dehydrated - hydration is a wonderful thing. On the subject of hydration - the only thing I can drink without some phlegmy reaction is slightly warm water - even Gatorade, which I find very useful, produces that kind of reaction for maybe a half hour. Just me, though. john At 11:23 AM 7/25/00 +0930, you wrote: >um, it is true, but dont skip breakfast just coz you'll be >singing that day.
