Good food before a gig

No food before a gig but several brews and a pizza after usually put me right for a couple hours of sleep before sunrise. Vampire diet!

A few beers and some Taco Bell sound good to me but for god sake, don't drink Milwaukee's Best Light, at least drink Busch or Bud or something decent. :D

I keep it simple and cheap. 2 Peanut butter sandwiches on wheat bread and an apple does me right. The all-ages venues and being on the wagon for Lent has done away with the drink at or after the show.

dont eat before a show. but on sunday afternoons after a weekend of gigging, i always cook chicken on the grill. usually wings or quarters. there are a lot of good notes in chicken!

Do any of you that sing avoid certain foods before a gig? Dairy, etc.

 

 

this is one of the reasons I don't like to eat before shows. Being full messes with my singing (throat and breathing)

But afterwards, well... that's a different story!

 

 

yumm...the one bar we play "Cab's Bistro" brings us out these cheese trays after the show with chesses, pate (sp?), fruits, breads and other assorted goodies. I scarf.

I try not to eat any less than 2 hours before go time, and I try to get a lot of protein, so no sammiches and fries for me.... I don't eat after a gig because it's usually close to the time I'll be sleeping, and you shouldn't do that, plus you've probably pulled in enough calories (though not the right kind) during the gig with alcohol intake....
