@localbandssay: standing at the side of the stage during other bands sets” // and blocking the monitor engineer's view of the band


LINE CHECK IS MONITOR CHECK. If you yell 10 things at me during the first song and didn't say a thing earlier... Too bad. #audioproblems


If you can't tune your guitar or sing on pitch, don't tour. You'll end up getting no applause and people will leave. #fohproblems

Sure. It's not like I had any plans for every single Wednesday night from now until eternity... #worshipleaderproblems


"We're a national act. Our gear doesn't move." Said the band playing the 200 person club. Strike your gear, or I'll do it for you. #fohprobs


Fastest way to a horrible (or nonexistent) monitor mix? Be rude to me. #audioproblems


If you have to apologize to the crowd how bad your original songs are, just do them a favor and stay home. #audioproblems #FOHproblems


If you arrive late to your own shows because you partied too hard last night and couldn't wake up, you do not deserve to tour. #reality


If you're 3 and a half hours late, you will not get a soundcheck. Simple as that, folks. #fohproblems #audioproblems


If you're a local band and write a serious song about how local music sucks... I'll probably mute your monitors and stuff. #stop


Friendly industry advice: being rude to the monitor engineer is the quickest way to get the worst mix you've ever had. #audioproblems

There's no 'wrong' way of doing sound, just many ways that have a higher probability of an undesirable outcome #FB


If you're a keyboardist and show up with 4 separate keyboard amps plus a Leslie and B3 organ... stop. #FOHproblems #audioproblems


If you're the opening band and you take up twice as many channels and stage space as the headliner.... you're doing it wrong. #FOHproblems


If your soundcheck time takes longer than your set is.... you're doing it wrong. #FOHproblems #audioproblems
