Basically off-topic at this point, but how was Boarcorpse? Did they go over well? How populated was the downstairs show anyway?

Hahaha, nope! It was very brutalll in the hemroid kinda way. The fucking dipstick soundguy decided that it was a good idea to put a gate on the kickdrum. (I used my accoustic kick ONLY because set times were so short, it's much faster to set up than my rig, and i figured the fucking palladium could make it sound good.... as that's usually the only part on any band i see at the palladium that sounds good) anyways, ya.. he put a fucking GATE on it. And he set the threshhold so high that when i didn't REALLY lean into it, there was no kick drum at all.. So any pattern on the kick turned into popcorn, and any constant fast kick dissapeared completely. I thought it was just my moniter maybe, but we watched the video of it last night, and it was fucking atrociuos.

So while I'm totally aware that the kick drum isn't the most important thing in the band..... when the soundguy puts a gate on it that cuts more than half of the hits totally out of the mix, it makes the rest of the band sound sloppy as holy fuck.

Sweet jumping fuck, i hate that soundguy. I'm never using my accoustic drum again.
