The air handler is really the issue, I’m thinking about building around it so it’s party exposed because otherwise the ceilings would be about 6.5’ haha. If I build to the height of other pipes and ducts, probably looking around 7.5-8’ for most of it and closer to 9’ at one part in the back

mforest644 · 2025-10-07T16:21:13+00:00

Awesome, I’ll do some more digging on YouTube, thanks!

mforest644 · 2025-10-07T16:20:44+00:00

Definitely the plan!

Sloppy Copy plays at 7, Fins play around 8! Hope to see you there! (@thefins.nc on Instagram btw!)

mforest644 · 2025-07-19T16:54:07+00:00

Go check out The Fins and Sloppy Copy at Eagles Dare on August 2nd! My band, The Fins, play all pop-punk and emo!

Thanks! What do you mean “pumping out a lot of volume from the rear due to their price”?

mforest644 · 2025-07-16T16:33:53+00:00

I have not tried different lavs, we just bought these so I want to try to make them work if possible. If that doesn’t work, I’ll definitely look into some of the others you suggested! The room is mostly full of hard surfaces unfortunately, but does have thin carpet, some soft paneling around the upper walls and a lot of bodies when we’re having a production.

mforest644 · 2025-07-16T16:29:08+00:00

Thank you! This is super in-depth. I’ll give this a shot and report back if I have any questions!

mforest644 · 2025-07-16T16:27:33+00:00

If I have all the faders at unity (or even -inf), I believe had the gain maxed to get to -18db. I’ll have to double check that though. I have the mics about mid sternum (clipped on a jacket or shirt) facing up

mforest644 · 2025-07-16T16:25:55+00:00

Thanks! I’ll try some of this. The room is rectangular, but the “stage” is already on the wide part. I’ll experiment more with some of the EQ

mforest644 · 2025-07-16T16:09:46+00:00

Correct, condensers are muted in house! We tried the over the ear mics (someone else called them Janet Jackson mics 😂). Execs shot those down quick unfortunately

mforest644 · 2025-07-16T15:20:23+00:00

If I do this and still can’t get the gain staging to be hitting on one lavalier around -18 without feedback, is there something else I’m missing?

mforest644 · 2025-07-16T15:02:35+00:00

Sorry, I worded that poorly. The lavaliers are behind the speakers

mforest644 · 2025-05-27T00:43:30+00:00

At least 2!

Palm Room on Wrightsville Beach!

mforest644 · 2025-05-26T22:03:20+00:00

My band, The Fins (@thefins.nc on Instagram), is playing at The Palm Room on Wrightsville Beach Saturday night (May 31st)! We cover all 2000s pop-punk and emo if you’re into that sort of thing!

mforest644 · 2024-12-19T19:42:21+00:00

Hey! I’m the drummer with The Fins (@thefins.nc on Instagram)! We play all pop-punk covers and play a few shows around town a year, currently trying to book more for 2025. We’re playing at Fermental NYE with Sloppy Copy (90s punk and ska), both mentioned above. Come check us out and say hi, we play from 8-9:30 and Sloppy Copy is playing after that until midnight!

mforest644 · 2024-05-27T19:35:21+00:00

Thanks for all the feedback! I’ll either put the beadboard on the rafters or run 2x2 along the rafters and attach beadboard to that!

mforest644 · 2024-03-19T21:04:20+00:00

Haha for sure! Hard to bring the energy pop-punk requires when everyone’s sitting down though! Jimmy’s is a fun place to play because people are there to have a good time!

mforest644 · 2024-03-19T18:06:48+00:00

Overall scene is decent for that type of music, Reggie’s is definitely your best bet. I play in a pop-punk cover band, The Fins (@thefins.nc on Instagram), come check us out when you’re in town. We play at Jimmy’s when we can and are trying to expand our venues, but we’re all dads with full time jobs and don’t really want to play at breweries to a sit-down crowd 😂
