Excellent advice Iceman!

and your Singing should be approached in the same fashion, run warm-up 
scales (10 minutes) singing with your TONGUE OUT this will eliminate 
problems with strain and hoarseness...

don't push hard when runnin' the scales, keep relaxed with good 
posture.....it REALLY will do the trick...

best,
Rob Paparozzi
