    Really great to see all that laid out. Looper for. Self sound check is brilliant! When I was playing more pubs, I would split a two hour (or more) show into half hour sets and split it with another act (or two). This kept the audience interested and the musicians fresh. This also means we could take turns running sound for each other. You take a but if a hit in earnings, but pubs like it when you bring a party, and it's easier to land longer gigs.

    A very informative video and a great cover of Cry Me A River. I was surprised to see that you bring your own lighting, but it does make sense to rely on the venue for as little as possible. Plus, it looks like they conveniently also light up your pedals to cut down on guesswork and I really liked your tip about using a loop pedal to keep the music going while you adjust levels. Btw, that was a very inventive use of a drone. I would never have thought of flying one inside to get a shot like that.

    One thing I learned the hard way back when I was in a gigging band.... backups, backups, backups. Cables, cords, power sources, strings, amp tubes (valves), and anything else that can fail at the worst possible time. Loopers are one of the most innovative and useful items for guitar that's been developed since I started playing almost 50 years ago. Great rundown of your live rig and gear, Mary. Thanks!

    Greetings from Crete!!! I do the same job for the summer for 5-6 days a week. I've come to a point that I wanted to have a fast setup. So I got a rack and put all the cables inside and they are connected all the time at the mixer so I only have to plug them in the microphones and pedals and speakers. Also I got a digital mixer which I can control by a tablet in front of me. All of these saved me time. I setup and I pack in about 15 minutes.
