Hey Fretsmith -
Please, chime in all you want!!
You have a good idea about giving myself some headroom to play with from my guitar. We'll see how it works out. He had asked me to turn it down once we got started and for the dummer to play harder and the bass player to turn it up. Perhaps he was trying to tell me somthing...:-).
It was actually the bass player that was overwhelming the sound. Ironically, he complained he couldn't here us!
Tonight hopefully level setting is more of a priority.
We are performing for an open mic in a couple of weeks and are performing as a "headliner act" 6 weeks from now. I'll definitely plant a recorder somewhere and post the results here.
The adventure continues...
Cheers!
