It was also one of the first shows where I saw people who I considered famous who were also accessible. I flipped that over and made myself 6’10”, and had what was probably the best view in the house. I was about halfway back on the floor, right in front of the mixing board, and I found the milk crate that the microphone cables were probably kept in (I didn’t know this at the time, but thinking back on it, it was probably where Chucky Cheetah, who did sound at that club, had his cables). The band consists of Al Johnson (lead singer), Mark Shippy (guitarist), Pat Samson (drummer), and Todd Rittmann (guitarist).

It was June, and there were just as many people outside who didn’t get in as there were people inside who did. Maybe three hundred people, tops?

Speaking of Chicago, recording legend and Electrical Audio founder Steve Albini once said, “The people here are here for reasons associated with their lives in general rather than for show business, so things like music, art and other creative pursuits tend to be done as passions and for camaraderie rather than as careers.” This, perhaps, is the precise reason why Chicago has given birth to so many excellent recording studios and record labels through the years. Touring engineers become connoisseurs of the road. They summon sound, as it is meant to be heard, from the bowels of complicated electronic machinery. Beloved by musicians and craftsmen, virtually ignored by the thankless masses, these men and women slink around behind the scenes, placing microphones, turning pre-amp knobs, and setting levels.
