It's hit and miss. Bottom feeders is a good term for them. Guys that do sound at the local bar/club level are usually burned out wastoids. They roll out of bed just in time to haul ass to the club to do a halfassed sound check then they vanish for 3 hours until it's time for a band to start. There are a few solid clubs here that have steady sound guys, but many of them have a revolving door of sound guys and most of them are hard to deal with. They're just a bunch of halfassed drunken flunkees. I'm gonna start punching them in the head.
Yeah but then there is nothing worst then a crying burned out wastoid halfassed drunken flunke looking up at you from the floor.
