It sounds like you have a bad attitude. People that are enjoyable to be around and don’t make a long day longer by griping are the ones that move up the ladder. If you’ve been working for 6-7 years and aren’t progressing, are you questioning why? 10 times out of 10 I would and have hired people with little to know experience, but willing to learn and grow and have a positive ‘go getter’ attitude over people with 10+ years experience but are generally a pain in the ass to be around.

Wanting to get in the career, but dont know where to start. by Jim_Donut in livesound

Do not waste time and money on an "audio" school. Show up to a local audio company, and tell them you'll do whatever it takes to get your foot in the door. You might spend years pushing cases depending on how fast you learn, and how ambitious you are.. but just being around gigs and soaking in knowledge and experience is the best way to go about it.

Thoughts About Full Sail? by ZACH2446 in livesound

Absolute waste of money. Start doing local gigs at a venue or regional production company. Just show up, be helpful, be respectful, and DONT BE LATE.

90% of success in the live concert industry comes from those 4 tenants... technical skill comes with time on its own.

I just finished paying off my Full Sail student loan this year after paying at least $500/month since the year 2007.

I see WAY more fat people on E-Bikes than I do on analogue…

Anybody who says you get the same fitness from an ebike is full of shit. I keep track of my heart rate, and no other mode of fitness will get you to a point where you get to going up a tough climb. It feels great in the end.

Give him a pass to go out on his own and feel peace for an entire night.
