I am trapped in a strange world

[Jay Barracato]

Where kick drum and bass guitar are the lead instruments.I can see a mandolin, fiddle, and banjo but can't hear them at all.

So you are at what could be any rock concert in the world?

Actually country, but same difference.

And the blinders three times per verse don't seem very creative any more.

My theory on that is........ that given an OK sound for the given space it's fairly easy to make the kick drum go boom and the bass guitar nothing more that a low frequency vibration. To create a true "mix" takes some finesse. Regardless of the level you work some have the finesse others will never find it, plain and simple.

Well, did you walk up to the FOH guy and tell him you were the mandolin player's girlfriend?

Hello,

The real problem was...that the Foh guy was the Bass Player's boyfriend, and was cheating with the Drummer.

Hello Mike,
If I could expand on that it would be that there is a certain power rush with "creating" that kick drum feel.
The person at the board feels in control, and part of the performance. Instead of just presenting the band in an egalitarian manner.

Regards, Jack

Actually, I was sitting at FOH next to the guy mixing not saying a thing. You know, when someone else is driving...


And the mandolin player's girlfriend is the guitar player/lead vocalist.
