8:24 Beginners practice until they get it right. Pros practice until they can't get it wrong.

Its reassuring to see professional performers still get nervous. Cheers Mr Chapman.

i have my first gig in 2 days, thanks rob!

[Paul-D]

Your a good dude, i havent gigged since december 2019 and i only started in early 2019 😅 hope it goes well dude and gives you a fresh boost of energy

This is really great advice Rob. I’ve been doing the exact same thing for the past few weeks for some upcoming gigs and it’s made a huge difference, I’m using the Headrush FRFR as my monitor to simulate being onstage. I wish I had taken this approach years ago. You’re sounding great too mate!

My bands only just got back together for practice with a new drummer, hoping to be able to do some shows later in the year, great advice for practice👍

Great video Rob!! I always practiced/ rehearsed exactly as I was planning to perform the gig. I also found the playing live 2 or 3 nights a week, every week was much easier musically than, later in my career playing concert type events a few times a year.

For home use with bigger amps, I recommend a volume pedal. A good volume pedal will keep your tone the same, but at lower volumes. Now that I found out how much volume can be reduced with one, I am no longer scared of how loud a bigger tube amp will be in my house. I will use a 2x12 Cab which is all you need for only small and medium sized gigs and if you are on a mic at bigger shows than you will be able to get enough volume anyways plus if you are too loud to fit well in a live mix than a volume pedal can help you not sound too loud. As to 4x12s sounding fuller, in a band mix I don't want too much bass anyways.

Hi Rob I hope things are settling in for u in Malta! I can see in your eyes how much you miss playing live...bet you hat first show back will rock! June 25 and wish I was there..lol.. good luck and be safe man!

[dannymoisan]

cool video, my bands back gigging and having a routine is crazy important, I will definitely be setting up the studio this way from now and standing up!!!!

[skerryperry]

I really hope you guys tour the states soon. Would love to see you guys live.

[jimmyc]

Solid advice, I do similar routine. Also vocal warm ups( use the ones with mouth closed/humming, won’t stress out vocal cord)

[Fender]

Good stuff Rob. Always thanks for your vids.

[stratstart]

Great advice! Great video! Thank you my man!

[Mindartcreativity]

Thank you so much for this video, Rob! I started a new band in April and we‘ve been rehearsing regularly ever since. We play Punk/Post-Rock and I‘m the only guitar player and vocalist although I have never taken over vocal duties (we‘re not going for real singing more for punk shouting). I was worried about playing and singing at the same time and your tips are so valuable. I just got a microphone and next rehearsals we‘re going to start practicing with vocals. If you plan on doing more videos about singing and playing, I‘m all for it! Cheers!

[tomdelongshat]

I play bass and I have a gig in a couple weeks. It’s my first time ever playing a solo live so I’m kinda nervous 😅

[Tone-Oz]

This was helpful. Thanks Chappers. Great insights shared.

[cigarboxguitar]

Great to hear that you will be playing live again Rob. Maybe get CW&C over to the west coast at some point in the not so distant future?

[pedromattos]

Love the dark tone! Which rig you’re using?
