KQRC: Kansas City – Alterbridge In Studio

Category: Kansas City - KQRC - 98-9 The Rock!

Funny…After the years I’ve spent making fun of Creed, one of my favorite “new” bands is Alterbridge. I really like their music.  And I’m not alone in that. It supports my theory that people don’t really hate Creed. They hate douchebags. And Scott Stapp, as we all know, is considered a douchebag.

On this day, the band stopped by before having to play an outdoor show during a horrible weather day.  We hung for a while, and they played a couple of songs live in-studio. It was an exercise in futility really. For all of their alleged expertise, whomever designed the (really nice) air studio, didn’t think of what would happen if a band came in, and didn’t run their stuff through a mixer.  The way the room was arranged, the mic pickup patterns phased each other out. So, it was extremely difficult to mix live on-air.  We eventually got it right toward the end of “Before Tomorrow Comes.” So…here ya go. Enjoy.
