[QUOTE="deonk2000, post: 917328, member: 1635"] On the issue of sound, Albertronics and I recently attended a reunion concert of a local (Cape Town) band - Little Wing. Their music repertoire covers the late 60's to mid 70's....Led Zeppelin, Chicago, Wishbone Ash, etc. Good musicians, many residing in Oz. But they were seriously let down by the sound; we couldn't work out who was to blame as there seemed to be two sound engineers; one in the band (monitor mix?) and we presume a FOH engineer behind us. I have been to this venue on many occasions before and they have a good live sound setup and some good engineers, but this occasion left me perplexed. It was a barrage of ill-defined sound (noise) being hurled at us. Mix completely messed up; vocals down in the depths, rhythm guitar off, kick drum mic off (they only discovered this toward the end of the set) and what sounded like the overall EQ set to max in the midrange. Somehow there's this association that if its loud then it must be good. My ears were in pain. [/QUOTE]
