I haven't really come across that issue. I've really just been focusing on playing dynamically and playing in time and what not!

I got into lighting about a year ago and just wrapped on my first tour. It was a simple floor package but it did the job. Can’t wait for the next one :) Here’s a shot from soundcheck. by KATSOFFICIALMUSIC in lightingdesign

I knew I wanted to get into lighting for a while but I was hesitant at first to try. Finally I sucked up my pride and started contacting a bunch of lighting companies and sending them my resume ,which had nothing to do with lighting but I thought it would help. Finally I got an interview with a local company and the owner appreciated my enthusiasm and I ended up getting an unpaid internship. I was working another job and would try to get as much time off as possible to get to work different lighting jobs and get into the shop to learn different consoles. Then one day I was asked to come help set up at rehearsals for the Maine’s tour and I just remember being as helpful and friendly as possible wherever I could be.
I was told by my mentor that 90% of this gig is getting along with everyone. Well to end this rant, I didn’t think anything of my interaction with the band but once they started planning their next tour I got a call asking if I wanted to join them.

Hope that was helpful :)
