Episode 431: Holiday Ketchup (Catsup?) and LBK recap

This week on Cover Band Confidential, Adam and Dan do a quick Memorial Day catch-up and break down the first live band karaoke show under Adam’s new "ATL LBK" brand. The gig had a lot going for it: a massive LED wall, custom motion backgrounds, ProPresenter handling the song list and visuals, AbleSet running lyrics, and Bandleader managing singer signups, payments, and queue management. Shockingly, a lot of the complicated stuff actually worked. But because this is live music, there were still some growing pains.We also get into escape room recommendations, a BBC show recommendation, new merch plans, the last Members Only gig with Nathan for a while, and why anything worth doing is apparently worth overdoing. If you’re a working musician, bandleader, or someone thinking about adding live band karaoke to your gig options, this episode is a useful look at what worked, what needs dialing in, and why the signup system and lyric system are probably the things you want working before anything else.Want to send us your gig red flags for a future episode? Email: [email protected] the Cover Band Confidential community, Patreon, Slack, and more: https://www.coverbandconfidential.com/links#CoverBandConfidential #LiveBandKaraoke #CoverBand #WorkingMusician #GiggingMusician #BandLeader #LiveMusic #ATLmusic #AtlantaBands #ProPresenter #AbleSet #BandGear #MusicBusinesslive band karaoke, live karaoke band, cover band podcast, Cover Band Confidential, working musician podcast, gigging musician tips, bandleader advice, live music business, how to run live band karaoke, ATL LBK, Atlanta live band karaoke, karaoke with live band, ProPresenter live music, AbleSet lyrics, band signup system, live band set up, cover band tips, bar band gigs, private event band, live sound for bands, band routing problems, Behringer WING live sound, QR code song signup, band karaoke setup, audience participation gig, cover band business, musician podcast, live music podcast, gig recap, band tech setup, live vocal mixing, in ear monitors, band management, music business podcast
