20 minutes to find a second mic? Or move the connection to a different input.

Sounds about right for the people Trump hires.

The sound tech probably didn’t have it on.

Sometimes you wind up working gigs you wouldn’t want to. Easy to make mistakes.

Not getting paid is rather demotivating, yes.

Reminds me of a gig I had in a studio where the lead singer was a real jerk to everyone in the studio and to his band-mates, he kept berating everyone in the band, telling them to play better, and when it was his turn to record vocals, I pitch shifted his monitor a half note :-) Watching him squirm in the vocal-booth trying to hit a note was priceless.

That.

that's just beautiful. Kind of evil. but beautiful.

Billy Corgan never recovered from that one.

Despite all my rage, I'm still just a rat in a cage.

Probably hard to find a good sound guy that'll work for free.

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 29 points 14 hours ago

I'm sure if he asked a local evangelical church, they'd loan up their sound guys. You know. Gotta help the antichrist out.

Comrade Mic Guy

I mean seeing how he has probably pissed off just about every theater kid living by now it's just deserts. Nobody is racing down from the booth with a lav for this guy.
