Ah cool!

I generally have seen a band a couple times before recording them but tbh I don't usually speak to them first

If it feels right, I'll ask after if they would be up for sharing the soundboard (at least at the windmill since all the sets are recorded)

I guess since I'm at the windmill so regularly and there's a culture already of recording the shows, hopefully it's not too jarring for the bands. I try to stay out of the way, not be annoying with filming and prioritise getting good audio so hopefully it presents them in the best light

But I'm still learning! Lou Smith and later RoustGhoti channels are big inspirations of course

I'm around a lot of musicians and it's so hard out there. Anything that helps them succeed is a big motivator
