    I thought I'd make a separate thread for this one.

    In Live In Texas just before they hit the stage, Chester has a spray bottle he sprays into his mouth. He also does this during Rock Am Ring 04 show. What exactly is in the bottle. Maybe a vocalist could help me out here...

    Well I'm a guitarist primarily, but I sing too, so I know a few things. It's most likely that minty throat spray stuff, because it relaxes the muscles in the back of the throat. It might also be sugar water, because sugar softens up the vocal chords and keeps them from drying out.

    It's sugar-water. I use it when I sing, sometimes.

    [edit]
    Or a mint-spray, like tasta said. I didn't see his post when I replied.

    wow that really is interesting. i wonder if that is how Chester is known for his singing that goes far beyond the pitch of other singers. I am diabetic so that really poops out that idea for me >_<

    sugar water won't make you scream like chester or change your voice , like tasta and will said it helps keep the vocal chords from drying out. hes on stage yelling his life out, he cant keep stopping to get a drink of water.

    actually, I saw the DVD and I think i saw him get some water...when Mike was singing and Chester went to a corner and drank some water..I am not sure...besides,the poor Chaz has:
    bronchitis
    acute laryngitis
    acid reflux disease

    poor Chaz

    I am sure he has those diseases ...poor him.....maybe ,maybe not..i hope he doesnt have all of em!

    I play: drums,guitar,sing



    I saw that part when Chester got some mini bottle into his jacket pocket....I am not sure what it was....but he needed it..maybe it is sugar water...not sure :chaz:

    oh i see. I thought it was supposed to change the voice to god like voice XD. Well Mike seems to have enough breaks for water breaks =/ in the High Voltage Live he got a drink of water when chester does that SOMETIMES sometimes sometimes sometimes... thing. so maybe chester could do that when mike s rappin

    yea i know he does take sips from his bottle, the bottle spray isnt going to keep him going the whole night, hes human. look how much he sweats during concerts, he needs to get water back in him. i never said he never takes sips, if thats what it sounded like i was saying i apologize for implying that. im saying that without the spray, chester would constantly be drinking from the water bottle.
