Allergies
My allergies are acting up really bad. My nose is stopped up, my throat is scratchy, and I can't stop sneezing! I would usually just wait for it to blow over, but I'm a singer and I have a performance TONIGHT. What can I do to clear it up for just a couple of hours?! I'm desperate!

Go to your local pharmacist and ask for anyting with anti histamines.
Thanks for the one rating. In case you didn't know, one thing that causes allergies is the dilation of blood vessels. If you take something with anti histamines in it, it reduces the dilation of the blood vessels temporarily and well hence temporarily stop the signs of having allergies.
Of course if taking the proper medicine to stop allergies isn't good enough for you, you can hang up pictures of naked men or women at the back of the crowd. Looking at naked people tends to prevent people from coughing or sneezing.
yeah antihistaminse make you sleepy, but if you're going ot be on stage, you're going to have at least some aldrenaline running, which tends to keep people awake. Unless if you go way over the recommended amount, you shouldn't be so sleepy that it's going to affect you. As for your sore throat, drink juice(preferably apple) before the play and inbetween acts. If you cough, take cough drops. If that fails, hang up the naked pictures in the back.

there isn't any way to completely clear it up... but if you haven't tried this already: go to a pharmacy and buy "Singer's Saving Grace" throat spray- it's a miracle.
I'm a vocalist too and it's worked wonders for me if i spray it right before i go onstage.
You could also try Saline Spray. It's salty water that you squirt into your nose and it should dry up your congestion.
hope i helped :)
