    So far from what I’ve seen they do not lip-sync, BUT they do use equipment as a Direct Input to alter there voice.

    So those headphones in their ear are called monitors, most of the time there are also speakers on the stage that point towards the musicians as monitors as well. It helps them listen to everything going on, it is so different being on the other side of where the speakers are pointed. it’s usually just sound echoing and reverbs on the stage, so those headphones help let the artists listen to the sounds live.

    It depends on the show. This one is outdoors, most performers will usually get there in the morning to do a sound check, and then leave. Then they will show up an hour before their performance and then leave right away. Indoors, there is usually a place for them to hang out, like a small private lounge, or an upstairs loft. For the most part they are out of the way.

    It can get hectic when something breaks. Say your event has like 5 wireless microphones and all of them just pop for some reason. Now you have a short window to find a shop willing to rent. Maybe not the best example lol, but I’ll stand by it.

    Saturday I am DJing for one of the largest Pride event in my state, I am so excited, and get the opportunity to work with 2 very large musical celebrities. My goal is to help them setup their instruments and their stage, but I would be lying if I said that I am not internally screaming and fanboying inside.
