Live on stage: We Could Build An Empire

Last Saturday I got to do the live mixing for a gig by "We Could Build An Empire", at RoQ in Stockholm city.
The band played 9 songs total, and the gig lasted about an hour.

A live mix is just as live as the band playing, and when I do live mixing I'm continuously micro tweaking volumes and EQ to make everything sound as good and balanced as possible in the moment. All sound should be pleasant for the ears even at loud volumes, and at best you shouldn't have to wear ear plugs. Unfortunately there are few live mixing technicians that seems to share my opinion, or even care how it really sounds.

You can visit the band's web page at http://www.wcbae.com.
