You use your breath as an proper instrument both live and in concert -- where did you get your lungs? And do you do anything to keep them in shape (exercise)?
  		 
i have done different things on different tours . the whole range from being on an incredibly strict diet and not speaking ( writing everything down ) to being on a hardcore unhealthy exploding trip . i love both . i think it is important to go with where you are at each time . when my lungs are dodgy i swim a lot . when my lungs have been at their best i have been swimming an hour a day for a year or so ... when you go hoarse there are 60 different things that can go wrong so i have learned that it is important to not do all the tricks in the book , just the one that is going to cure , so with experience you learn which one it is . it is fun . on this tour we were all so happy and with an infant and summer and the happy songs so i never went hardcore on the hermit / monk tip on this one . maybe the last couple of weeks but overall it was a happy tour .
