Re: Doing Ken tamplin's vocal exercise
Ah, okay, I understand what you are asking. Begin with the warmups. Then go through all of the rest of the exercises stretching chest, or bridging (you can do them in either order). Then go through all of the rest of the exercises bridging (or stretching chest, if you bridged first). You can do the warmups twice if you like, but you don't have to.

Re: can anyone please review this cover song i sang after two weeks of ktva ?
2 weeks and already on the main stage 
. It's really hard to go deep with the quality of the video but: You tone of voice sounds good, and based on the video pitch is there. Your mic use is pretty bad, because the sound is fading off and on. You move the mic too far away from mouth because that happens.
Anyway nice start, but i assume this is not your first 2 weeks of singing right? There cannot be much KTVA in it yet after 2 weeks
Welcome and keep practicing like we all do

Prince Ali Ababwa- Cover
Thought I'd do another Disney song, since I enjoy them a lot, and it makes me very happy.
I did all the voices, it's a lot of fun layering vocals and seeing how the sound gets bigger each time.
Enjoy!

Re: Audio video demos
You are going to need some video editing software. If you have iMovie, or whatever windows gives you, that will be sufficient.
The process is as such: Record the video and the audio at the same time. Before you start singing, give a clap, this way you can sync your scratch audio (from the camera/phone) with the mic audio. Once in the editing software, you can align the clap waveforms. It is much easier to align the audio than trying to match with your eyes.
I hope this makes sense. It seems as if you have all of the equipment to do it. Best of luck!

Re: Am I a diva....
Oh hell yeah, I've got quite a bit to say about this, haha. Thanks, @Wigs, for tagging me.
So first off, @heidianita, you are not a diva. You are a person who knows what they want and how they want it. And for a musician to know what they want/need is important. Those guys playing drums/guitars, can they sing WELL? I bet they can't. I bet they don't even know how to warm up. Likewise, you don't know their instrument, and that's ok.
What's not ok is them telling you how to do your stuff. I was trying to sing with a band that was like this. They didn't call me a diva, but after several practices I got a little angry with them and started demanding some attention to my vocals because I couldn't hear myself behind the wall of cacophony. And yes, I believe behind my back they thought of me as a special flower. They also recommended me to "scream" into the mic to be heard. Yeah, no. I quit because that band was not working for me and every practice made me sore as hell for 2 days after.
You have to hear yourself. And not just hear, you have to enjoy singing, being able to hear all your beautiful voice vibrations yourself. Otherwise you just won't have as much fun. My current band values the singer above all. They know I'm a central piece, and my voice is what puts it all together. No amount of kickass drums or guitar will fix the situation if the singer sounds bad. They also know how important vocal health is. So they even lent me in-ear monitors before I bought my own!
Sorry, I went on a little rant here, haha, but the point is: ask yourself whether this band is a good fit for you. From what you're describing, I would suggest to look for another one. You'll be amazed how different the experience can be with good/bad bands.

What was the scariest stage fright moment you have ever had?
Mine was a gnarley German guy in a bullfight arena in the south of Spain with this huge German guy shouting expletives that he was going to kill me. (we were billing with a hard core death metal band and he was their fan)
I invited "Heinz" on stage and said "so you think you're tough? Let's see how tough you really are, and introduced him to the 5,000 person audience and said ladies and gentlemen...Heinz...handed him the microphone and walked off stage leaving him alone in front of all those people. He freaked out...did a killer stage dive and we won over the audience. :-)
I said "Let hear it for Heinz...and the audience went crazy ... (man I thought I was dead ha ha)
What is your scariest moment? :-)
