    We enjoyed listening to you & Stephanie at the Latitudes party and other venues while on the Viva from Civitavecchia to Trieste in late August. We even got a chance to say hi while you were between sets and exchanged jabs with Stephanie about UM. (My wife is a FSU grad.) Best of luck to you on the rest of your travels. We'll see you again December.

    Great video! I was wondering which agent did you use David to pitch for Norwegian? I'm already inside Carnival roaster but wouldn't mind trying a different gig. Thanks! Guido

    Love it! Can I ask for tips on creating a set list? Or any app to make that task quicker? It's such a hustle to create another word file to compile the lyrics for a gig haha

    • @DavidPaigeMusic
      @DavidPaigeMusic  Před 10 měsíci +1

      We have a master list on a spreadsheet. The next page has each set title (all 35 of them) in row 1 and each song for a given set is placed in the corresponding column.
      The task itself sucks. It’s not fun or sexy. Once everything is completed, it’s easier to stay organized, but we’ve tried so many times to just make a new set each day. It hurts our brains, it disrupts the vibe of the shows, and it just doesn’t help us put our best foot forward.
      Once you get your sets planned, you can do this a lot easier.

      @DavidPaigeMusic sucks right?? But really thanks for responding to this! All I'm looking for is an app that can merge the lyrics or word files in just a few taps, haha! Anyway, I'll continue my research and I'll give you an update if I've found something worth recommending. But seriously man, your vlogs help! Cheers to you guys!
