See y’all tomorrow!

Leading up to feedback Friday, what are you jamming on? I’ve got a party show coming up so I’m learning sex is on fire and I will wait for you!

Today I formally lined up two live gigs in two different venues. First one is mid-September at a restaurant for one hour of playing. Second one is at a bar in mid-October for about 2 hours of playing. Very different types of gigs. Restaurant is meant to be background music and the bar to get people to sing and be engaged. Getting close to the song lists I need. But will need these coming weeks to really lock it down. Very psyched!

Dadmode has engaged into 2nd gear! He arrived right before I had to play a wedding.

I have quite a few notifications to reply to and acknowledge! I’ve been out of town with my daughter, and then I had quite a few gigs back to back. I love scrolling through here and seeing what everybody’s doing. Should be able to engage more this week But I just wanted to bring up a topic of monitoring your mix for a live gig. Today was the first time I used in ear monitors and I really noticed an improvement in my energy management because I could really hear myself. I was able to play at a controlled pace and a controlled volume and even when I wanted to have more energy in the song, I was able to turn up the volume without feedback because my monitors were not even near my guitar or my microphone. I wasn’t exerting myself too much because I could really hear everything I was playing. @Luan Krasniqi what is your preference for live music when it comes to monitors?
