Re: headphones

aesthetics be damned...if we don't sound good on stage, who gives a hoot
what we look like?!

i know, headphones will give you that space-cadet look, but turntable
"players" and other electronic folks get away with it all the time.

it's mainly an isolation issue.  the drummer simply can't hear the loops 
and
blasting him away with a monitor 12" from his head turns to mush and thus
compounds the problem.

i think IEMs are the proper solution...anybody got a particular pair they
like.  i'd like to spend no more than 200 bucks, preferably less, but i
don't want to buy total crap.
