THE VOICE CONNECTION
SOUND OFF

Welcome to The Voice Connection Sound Off; a forum for users of books like Raise Your Voice, Melody to Madness, The Ultimate Breathing Workout, and Unleash Your Creative Mindset, as well as a place for Vendera Vocal Academy members to interact.

This message board was created so that singers could come together and "sound off" to help support each other during vocal development and the creative process of unleashing the creative spark that occurs when writing and producing music. Currently, myself and vocal coaches Ben Valen, Ray West, and Ryan Wall are here to respond periodicially to your questions, with new vocal coaches coming soon. But, feel free to help each other too:)

This board is here for you to ask questions about my and my fellow coach's books, videos, and MP3 programs, as well as offer others help with our vocal techniques. You may also post videos of yourself and your band to share your music and ask for critiques.

Please refrain from negative comments, profanities, spamming, and inappropriate criticisms of vocal methodologies, vocal coaches, and singers. All negative posts will be deleted and subject to banning without question. I will not respond to negative posts, because, as Mark Twain once said, “Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience.” With that said, positive criticism is welcome because that is how you'll grow as a singer during the training process.

Re: Participate in a discussion with America's Top Vocal Instructors

Hey, I was curious how much does it cost to listen in?

Re: Participate in a discussion with America's Top Vocal Instructors

Also is that this wed or an upcoming week?

Re: Participate in a discussion with America's Top Vocal Instructors

Well, it says "Wednesday the 21st", meaning this upcoming wednesday.

I don't think it costs anything to call.

Re: Participate in a discussion with America's Top Vocal Instructors

That sounds like fun! I won't be able to participate cause I will be at work but I'd love to hear it. I hope someone here will be able to record and post this online...

Re: Participate in a discussion with America's Top Vocal Instructors

It is totally feel, except for your personal phone charges for long distance, if it applies. The recording will eventually be on www.voicecouncil.com.

Re: Participate in a discussion with America's Top Vocal Instructors

Jaime, Why are their some voice council members speaking who aren't (acoording to the voice council website) members.... and do you know whats up with Lugo... he's pretty much disappeared from the face of the earth. I talked to him on the phone a couple of weeks ago, but since then haven't heard from him.

Re: Participate in a discussion with America's Top Vocal Instructors

Those other coaches are up for participation with the council. Lugo is a great guy but hasn't been participating. Don't know what's yp with him.
