SolDios Posted May 27, 2011 Posted May 27, 2011 Gah, just finished practising for tomorrow nights gig! should be awesome, and will be doing a zero to hero on it with my new video camera.So guys, any tips tricks or anything you could share? Uploaded with ImageShack.us^ (my kit all ready to load in the car for tomorrow) Quote
dim Posted May 27, 2011 Posted May 27, 2011 advice:1) leave the camera at home, you will have enough to sort without it and can always do the vid afterwards.2) carry those cardboard boxes very carefully and support them underneath, a shit box breaks open at the bottom and all your eqpt turns to shit too.3) be polite, even if the clients aren't.4) KEEP CALM AND CARRY ON.good luck mate Quote
Hobberz Posted May 27, 2011 Posted May 27, 2011 As Jim said, just stay calm.Tape any loose cords to the ground so people cant trip on them and kill the lights or music.Dont just play songs that you like, others may have a different taste in music.#1 Advice- BE GOOD TO YOUR MOTHER AND REMEMBER DRUGS ARE BAD Quote

SolDios Posted May 27, 2011 Author Posted May 27, 2011 haha yeh, they pretty much just want me to cross fader flick. so just when a song is running out, mix the next song into the current one so there's no gap of music <--- repeat 120 times. Quote
