Re: Top Ways To Annoy A Sound EngineerA friend of mine mixed in a beer garden once where the mixing console was inside a bar, no line of sight to the stage the the entrance to the bar was lockable. And kept being locked, all night, every time he'd go out to assess how it sounded in the space he'd be locked out and he'd have to fight with the security guard to get back in. He pretty much quit mixing that day.Add another annoyance to the pile. People who have chosen to forgo hiring a sound tech (they do lights, and think they know enough to muddle along), calling you up after you've set up the PA ready for their show asking you to drive into town and fix the 'problems', which turn out to be that the desk is patched in mono and is in the wrong location....They Haven't Even Fired It Up Yet!!!!!!!!!!
