One week our singer wants me to play a song slower. Then the next week he wants it faster. I brought in a metronome for about 6 months so I'd know what's what.
After just a month or so of not using it, he's at it again! Great singer, great guy, occasional whimsical sense of tempo.
Do you guys ever get pushed and pulled around like this? Slower. Faster. Slower. Faster. I'm getting dizzy.
I might get him to tap the tempo he wants on the night for every song, maybe wave his arm like a conductor. Good idea? Bad idea? Or should I cling onto the tempo duties because I'm the drummer and it's theoretically my job?
