"Listen to the stage manager and get on stage when they tell you to. No one has time for the rock star act. None of the techs backstage care if you're David Bowie or the milkman. When you act like a jerk, they are completely unimpressed with the infantile display that you might think comes with your dubious status. They were there hours before you building the stage, and they will be there hours after you leave tearing it down. They should get your salary, and you should get theirs."

Henry Rollins, Black Coffee Blues

Same here. The "Nathan" to whom I refer above hired me to run sound for an event this past weekend. I won't go into too many details, but let's say that there's a major international musical act that I'll wholeheartedly recommend to Avoid Booking At All Costs.

Nobody will know who to avoid if you don't give a hint!

I suggest we recruit a small Internets Army to spam their entire web presence with the Rollins quote.

Anonymous is not your personal army. I'd rather you hear it from me before they tell you.
