I'm not suggesting the engineer is blameless. It is on the drummers, as well. Actually mostly on the drummer. If the drums are too loud in the beginning, the whole band doesn't stand a chance. Bands are kind of like the QB in those situations. Raise the ability of those around them, and calmly overcome the deficiencies of the inept. Be a pro, take it in stride, overcome and break a leg.

I'm going to be more interested than usual about the sound system/engineer. Not going to bug 'em, just observe.
A friend and I back in the day would pool our sound equipment, and contract sound reinforcement gigs. The biggest band we ever did was a 38 piece big band. They were all fantastic players, and just all-around swell people. They didn't do shows very often, but we became their sound guys, so I guess we were doing okay with them. Dinny |

After reading today's posts, Bob Dole is concerned that his wooden box might be too loud on stage.

At a jam session, where people are introduced for the first time and come out playing, it's "when in rome". If it's Les Pauls to the walls, I'm all bombs away. I can hit 'em just as hard as I can soft. Yeah, I can definitely get on an English Muffin when the topic is stage volume. A thousand pardons. If the place is as big as it sounds, they'll probably put a mic on your box. I got you figured for someone that doesn't play your box at extreme volume levels anyhow. Dinny |

A guy playing a wooden box without his own mic would be like a guy showing up with his Axe and no amp. |

![]() Serious question, Dane. If SAUTO & I drove out there to buy you lunch, would you have lunch with us? We are not actively planning on driving out there, just asking for a friend. Dinny |
