The world's greatest hockey player, Wayne Gretzky, followed the same routine during the warm-up before each game. He'd shoot his first puck way off to the right of the goal. Then, when he went back to the dressing room, he'd drink a Diet Coke, a glass of iced water, a Gatorade and another Diet Coke.

Yes but sports people are a superstitious lot; many don't change their underwear or socks if they're on a winning streak. Please tell us you're not going to do that.

Whaddya mean "going to"???


Just kiddin', Bob. I couldn't resist.

I have a slightly different approach. I set up on stage, play an extremely bad chord really loud, go to the green-room, drink a beer, another beer, another beer, smoke a cigarette, then start the show..

Yeah, and from that point on you don't hit even one single bad note...

I remember when Wayne played for the Oilers the ice did look a little yellow at the start of the game...

Beer contains Vitamin P...I also heard that Keystone uses specially lined cans, they line them with beer...

I try not to be superstitious cuz I think it'll ruin my luck.

Underwear? Huh?

BS: the best routine is to know your stuff cold.

I actually think the best routine is to eliminate anything remotely resembling a sense of humor from your personality. Wouldn't want to actually have fun at a gig. It hurts your playing, donchaknow.
