But I figure the headliners all hire their own engineers to do sound for their individual sets. And if so, Paul McCartney's are earining their pay. The difference between how he sounded compared to every other headliner we heard on the same stage was staggering. My Bloody Valentine being the worst. Guess Paul can afford the best in the world.
I will see if I can find out who his FOH and monitor engineers are.

Surprisingly, artists tend to hold on to their monitor engineers more closely than their FOH guys - it takes a while for an engineer to learn just how to tweak it to make the artist happy.

But I imagine that McCartney has his own FOH guy as well. I'll see what I can find out.
