[QUOTE="gordon mcgregor, post: 25703, member: 169"] Re: Bottom of the Hill venue in SF - thoughts? If you own your own gear how about trying to use as little as possible as far as inserts/relying on eq etc from the console, ie get the sounds on the backine right at source, keyboard patches same levels etc also try and see if you can live without wedges or with them only carrying the vocals, for a while I did sound for a band that really only did festivals and often way down the pecking order and while it was not as comfy for the guys on stage they got very good at working with no soundcheck and often shambolic stage sound. It also got them support gigs as they were so good at falling onto a stage and playing as soon as possible our record was 7 min from loading the drums onto a stage from the van till the start of the 1st tune, this incuded throwing a 5 piece kit up (all the stands etc were memory locked etc) a guitar amp, bass amp and a 3 piece key board rig we were late getting into the showground but we started on time just.
