A new love for laryngitis...

In the ever-present quest to be the best "weekend rock star" I can be, I pushed it a bit too far this weekend.  As many of you already know, I sing for a band called Aftershock.  It is great fun, creative relief and an excellent workout.  This past weekend was a fine example of what happens when we hit overdrive.  We set up in record time, had few sound issues and had a fantastic crowd that danced almost immediately.  The rock gods shone their gelled lighting down on us and smiled.  We rocked hard and loud.  While a damn good time, it takes a significant toll on my voice.  The 5 am bedtime after unloading the van in the cold dark didn't help either.  Follow that up with great dinner company 12 hours post-gig and I am now working on a heck of a case of "no-voice-itis".  I am also coughing and sore.  It was completely worth it for the phenomenal opportunity to entertain people along the way. 

Thank goodness I am a tea lady...it is what is getting me through this post-gig haze.  My fan page is below...
