Great Advice!

Good advice. Thanks .First: I'm sure you could do a video about the most frustrating part of playing in a band, namely, booking gigs. Second: Something many bands fail to comprehend is the idea of Dynamics. You shouldn't expect the sound guy to control it. It should be done internally. When the singing starts, play softer! Third: I see nothing wrong with putting your own spin on a cover tune. Make it your own. Just my opinion.

I can cope with you being nervous and talking really fast. But slapping your legs with your hands is too irritating for me to deal with.
