    poor conditions

    My idea was not to bash the sound engineer at all, and I'm sorry if it sounded this way. Actually I wanted to know what other TB'ers did when facing a similar situation so that it doesn't happen again, or at least, less often. (btw, the amps weren't cranked all the way up, and yes, the...

    poor conditions

    Hi. Today, we played a show in our school and everything was excellent, except when the sound tech decided he had enough time to smoke outside... the bass was barely audible at the beginning and during the solos, one of the guitarist's volume was turned down... The drummer complained MANY...
