One of the most important guy’s at your show is the soundman. He can literally make or break the show for you. This is a guy you want to make friends with at all cost. Be cooperative and be respectful. He’s there to help you, consider him as a member of the band and help him help you.
Try and keep your stage volume down. Try to speak to him one at a time. Nothing is worse than when the whole band is asking him to change something at the same time.
Also remember he can’t perform miracles, If you stink he can’t fix it
