My first working band played a lot gigs crammed together in small spaces and thought it would be so great to spread out on a real stage. The opportunity came when we were hired to play a high school dance in a gym with a stage at one end. After spreading our gear across the stage, we went onto the gym floor to admire the splendor, decided it looked too empty, and pushed everything together. Remembering that still amuses me.

I've always enjoyed a fairly tight stage.
Unless I had to stand right over a crash cymbal.

...huh? Did you say "crash cymbal?" I couldn't hear you because I used to stand next to the crash cymbal of a drummer who was a carpenter by day and swung a 20 oz. framing hammer all day long. Both my ears are compromised but my right one has high frequency deficiencies due to cymbals.

Never played on a Coliseum stage but I do like to spread out a little. What I really like is a DEEP stage. Seems like it helps working the mic...etc

What I really like is a DEEP stage. I've always wondered how my set-up would work (in real life) with a full band. It's equipt for it, but you mention "deep" ... my room is not deep. Need to get a half a dozen of you guys out to Vegas, so the room can be tested.  |
