#494: Drummer’s Request (What I Need in the Mix): A Monostich Collection

The Mix

Can I get more consciousness in my monitor?

The Cowbell

I’d prefer less of it, actually.

That One Guy

I need less of that guy in the mix, that guy, the one in the back with the hat, the guy talking through all the quiet parts.

The Suck

Turn it down, please.

The Guitar Solo

I’m not going to need that in my wedge, thank you.

The Drums

My face is three feet away from my snare drum. I don’t need it in the monitor.

No Monitors

Everyone but the drummer: flying blind.
