A couple of years ago, I was playing the drums full-time in a fairly unknown band.
  We were touring all over the country, and it was awesome.
  It didn't start out that way though.
  I learned early on that the only way that a band can work, is if the people who are involved can get along.
  Some time during the first week that we were on the road, our singer came to me in the morning, and told me that he was not able to sleep because I had been snoring all night.
  He wanted me to find some snoring solutions, or else I would not be able to be in the band.
It seemed like my sentence had already been set before I was even considered part of the band.
  I knew that I needed to find some snoring solutions so the guys would be able to get a good nights rest and be able to perform at the best of my ability.
  I knew that snoring was mainly caused by the blockage of air flow.
  And one of the main things that affects this is the position that a person is sleeping.
  Now, we didn't have really posh hotel rooms or anything like that.
  We were sleeping on people's floors, wherever we could fit.
I figured that if I could change the position that I was sleeping in, it would change the airflow problem.
  I started by stuffing a few more pillows behind my neck to raise my head up.
  This gave a clearer path for the air to go to my lungs.
  When there weren't any extra pillows available, I would try my best to sleep on my side.
  This is one of the snoring solutions that is used to stop my tongue from blocking my throat.
I was relieved to find that these snoring solutions helped me to stop snoring.
  Early on, I did a little bit of research to find some different ideas, and I found that there are a number of methods that are available.
  Some people have to get special dental tools to clear things up.
  Some people even have to go and get surgery to help the problem.
  One procedure, uvulopalatopharyngoplasty, is an attempt to widen the airway by removing tissues in the back of the throat.
