Just a little poll to get things going in the live sound forum.

When you are gigging, be it solo, or band. In clubs or wherever. Do you most times end up bringing in sound gear, using the venue's production, or about half the time one, and half the other?

Granted, I haven't done a live gig for many moons, but back in the day, I provided for my own needs.

Cool. Just curious what experiences are like these days.

I know that the scene has changed in the last 10-15 years with some clubs actually having adequate rigs, with some qualified techs to run the stuff. One club of note, the Hideaway... (insert Hug n' Slug joke here) has a fairly substantial rig for a club in SJ, and at least one very qualified tech.

I know years ago you never had supplied production in this area. I suspect that we are catching up with more civilized parts of the world.

hehe...I'd completely blocked the few gigs I've done at the Hideaway. Yeah, I was able to walk in, hit the power, and start twiddling knobs. Easy.
