ahhh i dont even wanna get started on my soundchecks yesterday... the bands ignored my calls to come to the auditorium and we ended up doing soundchecks up till the minute the doors opened.[/quote]ccfan213 said:[quote="JasonH"
"ANY BANDS WANTING A SOUNDCHECK COME TO THE AUDITORIUM RIGHT NOW"
just do what i do...if they're late they've waived their right for a soundcheck. hell, i only check the opener anyways..just to get the levels set right. and if they don't load in on time, then screw em....no soundcheck...i'll do it on the fly.
of course i don't know what kind of bands you're working with. i'm talking about locals. the bigger bands...you kinda have to give them a soundcheck...and it usually is quite helpfull to you. but the local bands i get...half of them don't even know how to play well...so a soundcheck is just a waste of my time. of course, it always gives me a chance to tell those darn guitarists to TURN DOWN!
