Bringing back memories of the days our band headlined for Robin Trower, Tesla, Great White (Terry Ilouis), Faster P***ycat (yeah, the filter tried to shut me up on that one  ), Pop Evil, and several others 10-15 years ago. I got out of the music scene altogether, still have most of my keyboard gear, but no desire to go back.

Just for future reference, ping and DNS are two entirely different protocols. A DNS server may not necessarily respond to a ping, that doesn't mean anything is wrong.

Thanks Vulcan. Yes I'm aware that icmp is often deprioritized or discarded. Just trying to help isolate the issues some were having.

Mission creating/editing in DCS. You know you want to.

I make my own missions, but they are not elaborate as what Cpt Trips does. mine are fight each other missions, or helo jousting, Races. basic instant fun missions.

Yep seems like DNS is breaking down at the 4th hop. Can you ping the IP with/without? If so then it's DNS. If not then it's a routing issue.

Yeah we still use wedges and mics.  All we've done is drastically reduced our stage volume and gotten a better quality sound.  Of course, before IEMs, the only thing mic'ed were vocals.  Some of these dives bars and restaurants didn't like our noise level  .  It also wound up being much less work and setup time.

A lot of bands, even the big boy metal bands have no concept that the more the stage is balanced and lower volume, with in reason, the sound guys can do much more. A lit depends on drum volume. Instead of mixing around it. Good smart move, especially in low volume venues. In the 80s I used to put a small concert system, 24’ truck filled to the brim, in large bars. No way anyone will do that in the 2000s.  I pyro with flame throwers in large bars. They hired some bands just because of the kiss style pyro. Today, you rightfully go to jail. Things were bat sht crazy in the 80s.
