My kit was so big the band had to set up on the dance floor in front of me. I had a twelve channel snake just for drum mic's. It was the eighties. Believe it or not the kit was bigger. I scaled it back for this band.
It was indeed a mandana. I always had to wear a head band to hold the headset mic in place. It was mandatory because the extreme rocking sometimes dislodged it from my cranium.
I'm toward the end of a tough week with the state job; my wits left me on Tuesday. The men who hold high places here are not about to be the ones who start...

The writing thing was tongue and cheek.

Awesome Terry. But just to clarify. You DO have the bill of your hat flipped up, right?
That does not look like a hat. I'm betting on an Axel Rose mandana!

what's your opinion on all this machinery making modern music?
Answer correctly and you're in...
It can still be open hearted. It's really just a question of your honesty, yeah your honesty.
