One thing I learn a long time ago, is don't let one frequency in one instrument mask it in another. Gotta kinda leave holes so another instruments can come through. I may have 220hz riding high in two instruments at 3db, but combine they are hitting 6db, really hanging out there and one needs to go.

That's something a lot of people have a problem understanding.  The last working band I was in, I was the only guitar player. The other guys wanted to try out having a second guitar once. Guy came in. Set his stuff up. After listening to him, I told him he'd need to change his amp settings because the base was (insert range) here, and my guitar was (insert range) here. He got pissed and left.

One of the clubs we played at often had an awesome sound guy (R.I.P. Hobie). We'd load in after last call the night before our gig so he could do a full sound check for us. I remember when he finally took our "console tape" and hung it on the wall of his control booth. For a local band that was considered a big deal. Meant he thought enough of you to keep your mix handy for the next time.

if your ever looking for musicians that played the game GG I can endorse Von Messa aka Dan Messa on Facebook he is a Drummer and Stampf aka Dave Stampfli who plays a killer bass.

Von is in Pa and Dave in Ny somewhere. I played bass in highschool in a band 30 years ago,,, tried to pick up an acoustinc bass i had but electric is my thing...... I enjoy your music though


Oh I forgot Mudr who plays Electric Guitar and Played in the Band Called Bad Seed back in the day he is on facebook also known as Troy d Wheeland Sr Guitarist for Torn and Bad Seed

Cool!

Right now I'm in a band with my longtime friends. We have a pretty stellar lineup! So currently not looking for anybody, but I love interacting with other musicians.
