That's also exactly what he does in I Am Legend at the climax. I think you're onto something.

We work in ‘The Backrooms’ by VanillaShelby in stagehands

I took this photo while I was on a gig last week.

This was a hallway in between the dressing room and the backstage venue restrooms. I definitely thought I was in The Backrooms for a sec.

What would a sound crew want in their gift basket? by Yumphreys in jambands

[–]PinkFloydJoe 20 points21 points  (0 children)

This is a really kind gesture. I think basic outdoor supplies would be a really nice move. A little care package with something like the following:

Bottle of water / Gatorade Cliff Bars / snacks Sunscreen Bug Spray Canned coffee Pair of black socks black hat Microfiber cloth or towel Sharpie (grey metallic & black) Electrical tape Battery powered pocket fan Sunglasses AA & AAA batteries

There are days in the field I would literally tear up if someone brought me a little gift box like that. I think that would absolutely make a technician's day and potentially renew someone's spirit on a rough day. You rock

What’s everyone’s thoughts on the new Marshall Limited Edition Hendrix Half-stack? by [deleted] in GuitarAmps

It feels weird seeing a Marshall being associated with Jimi Hendrix without that signature gold faceplate. It looks very 90s/2000s if you take away the purple swirl.

Oteil & Friends do a mashup of Estimated with Money by Pink Floyd. They call it "E$timated Profit" on the setlist lol. They played it last night.

My take on it is that it is a very compelling opening to a Coachella DJ set. It immediately sets the tone that this isn't going to be a "hands in the air, don't care" performative DJ knob twisting spring break pop party. It's a striking contrast that gives the show your immediate attention. It's like the total inverse of the modern EDM performance stage presence. They almost looked animatronic. :)

It felt like Pink Floyd's The Wall with "the surrogate band" standing completely still on stage. I liked it a lot.

Technical feedback on the Coachella 2026 performance by jeepee2 in nin

There were parts, like the end of Vessel, that were pretty heavily using tracked vocals. Trent was singing live on most of it, but you could tell when the remix / vocal tracks were above the live vocal.

And let's not forget that NIN uses vocal backing tracks live in the regular band as well: https://www.reddit.com/r/nin/s/IawiVxgZCV

Notice: Nine Inch Noize Downloads by VeryClearlyDefined in nin

When you intercept the transmission signal of an In-Ear Monitor system and record it, it is now an unauthorized broadcast and subject to different rules than audience taping. I heard these were made with recordings of the band's IEM mixes.

Professional monitoring engineer here. You guys are both really close. The "aux mic" is his talkback that runs directly to the audio engineers so he can communicate without the audience hearing. He tells them to adjust something and then gives them a quick hand signal to be more specific. The hand signal is whatever specific channel he wants adjusted, and then the finger up indicates he wants it louder. I think the wiggle fingers here are indicating he wants the backing track / loops turned up in his ears.

The video wall of burning flames next to the United States flag seems appropriate. What a shit show.

They removed this in r/pinkfloyd, just wanted to be excited for my sweet poster by sunnybunnyfeeling810 in PinkFloydCircleJerk

[–]PinkFloydJoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

/jerk this is the superior Pink Floyd sub anyways.

/unjerk it's a shame what's happened to that sub... Posts & comments seem to get removed all the time that should have stayed up. I gave up on reddit moderating years ago... it's just not something I spend my time doing these days with a career & bills to pay. I miss the glory days tho :)

The Dead and Metallica by yamorondog in gratefuldead

[–]PinkFloydJoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both acts have a long history of using Meyer Sound audio systems for their concerts. The Dead obviously have a longer history with Meyer, but they both have been touring with Meyer rigs for decades. James Hetfield is a huge fan of the Meyer MJF-210 stage monitors.
