Summary

The magnificence of a big stage. The PA, lights, smoke, and the size that allows you to be able to move and perform with high energy. Of course a small stage has its charm too. Generally it means a more intimate crowd, more accessibility to the audience, and less pressure to perform visually.  But which stage is better? Does it affect your gear choices? Is there more pressure on a certain stage? Should you use inear monitors or wedges? What is a thrust? Can I walk on it? How do you get a big stage gig? Should I turn down small ones? Can an amp sound different on different stages? And nostalgia… oh we have lots of stories. Well we will discuss this, and more on this group therapy session with Lloyd, on the Tweed Couch.
