Was in a band that appeared on TV to lip synch a song we wrote. We had the instrumental track and we’re supposed to sing live. Our instruments were not plugged in. They had shitty stage monitors playing the backing track so we could sing to it. The drummer tried to play “very lightly” and they did not use tape or pads. But he was just too loud, and he drowned out the monitors. At one point we were all just listening to him and we all got off the beat. We realized it, and he just stopped playing so we could hear the track, and then got back on the beat. Total pain in the ass. Studio audience must have been like WTF. Would have been much simpler to just let us play live.
