I've seriously been thinking of starting a performance art group called SoundCheck or maybe The SetUp.

There would be 5 or 6 of us and we bring a ton of gear and tell the sound guy we need 6 mics. We would then spend our entire allotted time setting up and sound checking. Imagine the interesting reactions and interactions between people who KNOW the schtick and the people getting frustrated that the opening band has been soundchecking for 45 minutes.

I'm totally serious.

If you can't say that into a mic before a gig, you probably shouldn't be playing.

at Rockfest the sound check guy said/scream "MOIST" depending on whether the person sang or scream most.

Got a lot of the audience to giggle a bit.
