Always, always, always make sure you go to the bathroom before a set.
And drink water. And dress for comfort, not style.
These small things matter people if you want to win!

several tips.. most importantly is the overdrive use, being a beast expert drummer i know that drummer has most trouble timing the overdrive with the rest of the group, so everyone has to help the drummer by hitting the overdrive right when he is about to finish a fill so everyone enters overdrive at once.. also, its better to all activate the overdrives at planned intervals where there are the most notes for the WHOLE band
also… i’d try to pick a tricky song and learn it very well so the other team is caught off guard by it because they’re probably planning the same thing in LA

As the bassist for the reigning rock band champs at my office, we found that it helped to choose a long song and learn that well. If you jump out to an early lead, they probably won’t be able to catch up for the other songs. Boston’s “Foreplay/Long Time” sealed the deal for us.
