Ever notice that some shows sound really bright, I mean, the “ouch kind-of-crazy painful” type of bright - and what is the engineer thinking?” You’re a month into a tour, getting off a plane en route to another show.

Let’s face it , without sonic energy we do not have a rock show. The question is how much is enough and how much is too much.
