    The opening band gets to play in front of the headliners crowd, that’s a pretty big fucking deal. Think about a bunch of different shirt designs in at least 4 different sizes.

    Without being disrespectful it seems there's a big communication problem within the heading band crew and the opening band. These things could be easy to solve if there are clear etiquettes or rules to follow bc it would be easy to misunderstand. If you have 30 min to play, does that mean 30 min to literally play or does it mean 20 + 10 min to dismantle the gear and stuff. All these things must be very clear to avoid bad vibes and stupid fights.

    Hi to everybody, I have been through a different kinds of emotions watching the complete video. I've discovered your channel a few days ago, first video that poped out was your tutorial for "41" and honestly I couldn't believe it was really a real member of ATW YT channel. Let me tell you I've discovered ATW since the release of "Diamond" and I've been consuming your music gladly since then. I'm also a guitar player from Argentina, an average 50 yo guy from a poor country from a modest family. I love guitars with the same passion as you do, I would never sell any of mine and I have pretty cheap ones, but I can relate when you say they are your children bc I feel the same. Let me tell you that draw I smile every time you play a part of ATW song in your guitars, it is just magic, I love music and it is my instant reaction. And lastly let me tell you I've end up tearing up a little with your story with the classic guitar. I love my first guitar, of course I still have it but it is broken. It is a nylon classic guitar, not expensive at all but it is part of my life, and will find someone to fix it. I think the last ATW record is exquisite and it deserves more recognition. Keep rocking Ben, you are very generous for sharing so much of your music world with us. Love.

    Thanks for the videos man, this one in particular was very useful to me. I was just wondering how you got to your drums structure, what does the process looks like from that side, because it's usually tricky for me to decide on drum parts, giving the plugins offer so many different options at different tempos,. Thanks Ben, cheers.
