Fun Stuff > BAND
Playing my first ever gig soon...
Thrillho:
Extra sticks.
Learn the songs inside and out.
Remember that while you hold the songs together, you aren't the one in charge. Let the singer get their words out first.
Don't necessarily smash the fuck out of your kit. If you're miced up it's not necessary, if you're in too small a venue it's overpowering.
Dazed:
Oh yeah, definitely pay attention to dynamics and timing. Basically, try to keep your chops under control, keep solid time, and just do your best to hold the band together. That's your most important job.
JD:
Exercise so you don't burnout after a couple of songs.
Kill.kenada:
Thanks for the tips guys.
I know I'll really have to resist thinking about the crowd. I'm extremely nervous.
JD:
Imagine they are in their underwear.
