I was out on tour with Lilith Fair for a couple of years, and a friend of mine was running the sound board.

You would be AMAZED at some of the raw feeds coming in from some of the performers.

At the end of the show, there was typically a group sing with all the performers, and Sarah McLachlan had a list of the people she didn't want in her live mix... because they were SOOOO off it hurt.

More and more "stars" owe a lot of their success to the production crew in the studio.
