what happens if this band doesnt work out? surely you're more of a commodity with a p.a if you want to join a band in future?

As a bass player I don't think I should be responsible for supplying the PA, I did it before, but now it's just a pain in the ass finding someplace to store it. My playing ability should be my commodity.

etc.

I get it if storing is a pain in the ass, but think twice about selling ALL your stuff mang! Just sell half of it for twice the price, plenty of suckers out there

False, the vocalist should provide the PA if they are the ones who primarily use it. I'm sick of vocalists showing up at the last minute to a gig, plugging in a mic and calling it good. Put those fuckers to work!

plus, you could easily make a living doing sound for shows with a good setup. ive thought about it, im so tired of lame ass soundguys...

He does have a good point, but I would have to buy a van or a trailer, and I don't think I could do sound for a band and not play, it would drive me insane.

Do sound for a bunch of bands. And when you hear how much they suck, maybe you won't be that crazy about wanting to play with them. At least they'll have good sound though (granted you know how to stage good sound).
Who says you don't have to be in a band? Play in a band and do the sound thing too. Why not?

Kellan · Post by **Kellan** » Thu Jan 17, 2008 2:50 pm

be like a freelance sound guy or whatever you'd call that. That endeavor yields a lot more money than selling this gear for 3k will, over time.

Yeah, I've done it occasionally. It's a much more consistent way to make money because you get paid before anyone else.

Kellan · Post by **Kellan** » Thu Jan 17, 2008 9:19 pm

I've often thought about this as a side job, or hell maybe even a career; since shitty sound guys are abundant, and I'm a sound quality nazi.
