it is what it is

Re: it is what it is

Just remember: breathe out twice as much as you normally would, and you will nail it :laughing:

also, breathe in as much as air as you plan on breathing out

thanks guys - yeah, it has never really been a breathing problem for me as much as pitch control, sometimes nasal timbre, and achieving good range with dynamic control ... and phrasing ....

other than that, i am frikkin pavarotti :D

the majority of time though, that is all related to breathing

yeah, so like i said, i probably should take some lessons :D

Oh - I wasn't offering advice; I was just making a John Mayer joke.

Your singing voice rocks, and yeah, if you took some lessons, you would be king of the bar scene!

But you have a natural gift for singing. Not everybody has that. I don't - and even after years of formal instruction, I can't sing well, because when it all comes down, I just don't "have it."

Re: it is what it is

Finally got a chance to listen to this . . . great playing and very good singing man. It takes a lot of courage to get out there and belt them out. I've never been able to carry a tune, the notes are in my head but I can't make my voice go to the right spot. I really like Tore Down and your Come Together cover.

Re: it is what it is

Dude! Great to hear you again. This demo is very well done. You did a job of making these recordings punchy and clean. The musicianship is definitely there. I really like the vocals, the Billy Gibbons chops are outstanding and I like your choice of tunes. Killer classic strat tones too. Nice job bro :)
