WHS Coach Dave McEachern - main coaching points

1.       The Number One purpose of performing is SELF EXPRESSION

2.       Being GENUINE is the safest place to be. Faking it is fraught with danger (what if you fake it differently from time to time?)

3.       In order to connect with the audience and tell our story, we need

a.       ONE POUND OF FORCE
b.      FIFTY POUNDS OF EMOTION

4.       We sing from the inside out-

a.       From the BRAIN
b.      From the HIP
c.       From the HEART

5.       Begin every song with energy (not volume) that is at least equal to the TAG

6.       We need to find the answers to the following questions for every song-

a.       What is the main EMOTION?
b.      WHEN does it HAPPEN?
c.       Where are the TRANSITIONS?
d.      What are its VARIOUS DEPTHS?
