I’m a big proponent of being as communicative and detailed with the sound guy as possible, but I swear, half the time it’s like the sound guy never read the response to the advance email detailing our setup…. It’s like they just are finding everything for the first time during load in
That said still usually a good experience and I’ve started threads how pro-sound guy I am. I don’t really trust guitar players that are -constantly- whining about sound guys, and generally I’ll differ to assuming the guitar player is fucking up if they’re constantly having sound guy issues
There are bad apples/actors out there, but 99% of the time the sound guy rules
