Favorite stage positions
 
To the performing musicians of the board:

Which side of the stage do you like to stand on? I prefer the right side facing the audience, as shown in my sig. It just doesn't feel right playing on the left side, and if for whatever reason I had to stand there and it was a bad show, I'd blame it on that.

However, I've started playing with a keyboard to my right, so I guess standing anywhere else would just look stupid.

are you wearing a hat in that picture in your sig?

I am always stage right.

I actually can't wait to play live again next summer with my new band SUICIDAL SUNFLOWERS (we're recording some stuff soon if any of you want a listen)

I move around, but If im playing something difficuilt, I stand wherever it might be I ended up after flailing around.

Haven't played for a while, but when I did I was normally at the back in the shadows, squatting in front of my old AC30, trying to coax hellish noises from my effects.

Most people who saw us play didn't know I was in the band.

i love doing it.

with recs of the flesh, i'm always in the dead middle of the stage.
with dahlia indaco it's usually far left. it feels good to see the rest of the band to my right. dunno why.

Do you sit down or are you just always on the floor?

Danny Himself 11.17.2008 06:38 PM

He dances.

I've only ever been in the middle, but that was because I was by myself.

SuchFriendsAreDangerous 11.18.2008 12:05 AM

slightly my right of center, though not to far. in actuality I am rather lose about these things, and move where i fit with the rest of the band.

terminal pharmacy 11.18.2008 10:43 PM

cos i mostly do music for theatre i am at the whim of directors, so i go where the stage picture looks best with the rest of the performers
