Oh god I’ve experienced this first hand.
We arrived at a small club in North London. Supporting an up and coming indie band.
Our singer was sassy to the sound engineer (she is 4 foot nothing and full of hell)
Sound engineer just turned off our drums (drum machine) during our set. He was grinning like a bastard too. Turn em back on. Turn em off again. Finished set early and went back to the hotel in shame.Haha, as someone who has done sound, there are much more subtle ways to make you sound like you suck. This dude was sending a message.
Nearly broke the knob off, he was crankin’ it so hard!
On a real board, those would all be faders and the suck knob would be replaced with a “fuck yeah” one.
