Unread post by wwweeeee » Sun Sep 14, 2008 4:03 pm

Hey everybody ...

check this out ... I got a pet peeve that I been wanting to get off my chest ...
so if I sound a little anal ... remember its a pet peeve

Microphone stands are a major pain in my ass ... I mean its sometimes to awrkward to carry .. take up to much valuable room in the truck..
and I always seem to bump into the dam thing and knock down my microphone ..

QUESTION

Is it me ???
Or do you guys ... ( musicians ) feel the same way ????

looking to blow off steam

Are you catching your trousers on the stand? Cuffs maybe? Or the boom gets caught in the pleats?

How am I, or you for that matter, Mr. E., supposed to know whether this gentleman wears pleats on his khaki shorts? The man has a problem with his britches and I'm looking to solve it here.

Hi,

Yeah, agreed. Always stumbling over the legs of the mic stands.

If you're using a monitor wedge speaker, try fixing the main arm of the stand to that so the legs are not sticking out.

Cheers, Ed
Is it normal to be in love with your guitar? :o)
