Wylie Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 There are those who chat--with one another--while you play at, say, the farmers' market (our main gigs all summer, where we don't expect riveted attention), and there are those who come up and talk to you while you play. These chatheads are always very enthusiastic, and would tell you more about it if you'd just stop what you're doing and listen! I expect at some point a chathead will try to find a button to turn me off . . . Anyone out there dealing with this phenomenon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dad3353 Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 I'm a drummer. Anyone wanting to chat to me whilst I'm playing is almost certainly within range of my implements, and I can get pretty clumsy if disturbed. It happens rarely, but is always over in seconds. I try to keep the bloodstains off the drum heads, naturally. 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reggaebass Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 I could talk to someone very briefly, but any longer and I would lose my riddim 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Franticsmurf Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 I tend to nod and smile, whether or not I have heard or understood them. IEM helps. 😀 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
