I guess I missed the funny parts...
But there are a few missing for sure.
Like
- Band drank all of the post show rider while I was tearing down.
- Band smuggled post show deli tray down their pants while I was tearing down.
- All the really floosie chicks left while I was tearing down.
- Band re-arranged hotel room reservations because they got there before me and stole my single room.
Could be a very long list.
Love it. Thanks
Or the girlfriend who sits right at the lip of the stage, *behind* the FOH stacks, and complains that she can't hear the vocals (vocalist using IEMs).
Or the band that raids my water cooler (brought specifically for me and my crew) with the "better to ask forgiveness than permission" attitude. Of course, we're left scrounging for liquids during strike in 105 degree weather.
Or, from the band's engineer, "I really need twice this system to make it sound good." (never mind the fact that we make it sound good every week.)
