Wisdom Tuesday.

Gonna start something new, Wisdom tuesday, where I post a bit of wisdom from something I read this week. Today is from an interview with Pat Maine on Audible Hype.

“AH: What are the most common mistakes you see opening (and headlining) acts making — both onstage and on the road?

Pat Maine: Alright! I like this one. KNOW YOUR ROLE IN THE SHOW. As an opener, you are opening it up for the next guy and more importantly the headliner. IT’S NOT YOUR SHOW. Nobody is there for you,, no matter how dope you truly are. STOP ROCKING A LONG SET. Try relating with this strange new audience by giving praise to the headliner as a fellow fan. HYPE FOR THE HEADLINER.”
