I don't think it's the same. Drums require physical dexterity and coordination. Being a soundguy requires working ears, at least one functioning finger, and being awake.

I think someone jumping up and down on my console would wake me right up!

Being the rockstar that I am, I could easily bash the soundguys, but I'm usually very polite and respectful....before the gig. Afterwards there's no telling. I've shredded quite a few guys for doing a poor job, but I'm always right there to thank them when it's good.

I regret to say the Youtube account is closed, and I can't access the incriminating video. I'd like to see THE SHITHEAD in action.

Quiet is the new Loud
Same here, until i kept reading and found bobbsy had inadventantly linked it via another site. For those who haven't seen it, this is what a knob looks like; an utter sh*thead stamping on a desk

I'm afraid if I was the FOH guy, *I'd* be the one arrested, and he wouldn't be able to testify (or rap) with his jaw wired shut.

Nah, don't get his jaw wired. He'll need to be able to work to pay for the new Midas mixer he'll be purchasing on your behalf!

Oh and we all remember this SH!THEAD right?
Can't let these occurrences get lost to history.

The video's been taken down.
Thus, I have forgotten him.

I don't know Bob - so far it's a love/hate affair in a win/win situation.
I am waiting on the iX16 to come out later this year though!

Getting a bunch of bad shows due to the sound guys?
Most of them work for peanuts - bottom feeders learning as they go.

Yup. Soundguy-wise you get what you pay for--just like everything else in this world!
Speaking of bottom feeders, there's always those guys from weekend warrior bands who think they're Hendrix...

It never fails to amaze me that everyone thinks they can save a buck by skimping on production. 
Then wonders why a show sucks.

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.
