PS. Truth and Memes

  • Puts $10,000 worth of gear into a $500 car to drive 100km to $50 gig.
  • Nobody notices what I do until I don’t do it.
  • Not a magician but I can see why you might be confused.
  • Someone who does precision guesswork based on unreliable data provided by those of questionable knowledge.
  • I solve problems you don’t know you have in ways you can’t understand.
  • Because ‘Bad-ass Problem Solver’ is not an official job title.
  • Making musicians sound talented.
  • No matter how great the band is, if the sound guy sucks, the band sucks.
  • I am the sound guy but that doesn’t mean I can make your band suck any less.
  • God made audio engineers because musicians need heroes too.
  • And they said the bass didn’t feel right so I pretended to turn knobs until they liked it.
  • With great power comes great responsibility.
