About this episode
This week we’re keeping it light with a grab bag of hot takes straight from our Slack channel — because holiday gigs are frying our brains and y’all deserve something snackable.We’re talking:•Ray-Ban Meta's - new gig essential?• Is “Freebird” the new Rickroll?• How much time should really be between soundcheck and downbeat (spoiler: it’s not 30 minutes, Kevin).• Why the best critique comes wrapped in a compliment sandwich.• And a little love for our global Slack fam (what up, Australia 👋).So yeah, we’re vibing on the little stuff this week — the kind of stuff that keeps you sane when you’re hauling gear in +80-degree heat while wearing tank tops you definitely don’t wanna perform in.Join us as we shout out the community, talk gig life, and maybe convince you that “Freebird” deserves a second chance (kinda).MaestroDMX (10% off discount link): https://maestrodmx.com/discount/DISCOUNT4CBC?redirect=%2Fproducts%2FmaestrodmxBOTH Lighting 360 Tubes (Use “DISCOUNT4CBC” to save 5%): https://bothlightingusa.com/collections/all-products/products/360-tubes-copyBlank Contracts & Riders: https://www.coverbandconfidential.com/store/performance-contractsBacking Track Resources: https://www.coverbandconfidential.com/store/backing-track-resourcesThank you so much for tuning in!
