It shits me when I'm packing up a stage and I see some noob winding a mic cable around their forearm like a fucking rope.

you would think that is what they teach day 1

instead i think its how to make a wobble.

The thing is that even a rope , you would roll the same way. I mean sailers were doing this for like last i don't know 2000 years ? I learnt how to do all that shit when i had to clean up the garage or do chores like normal kids while your dad watches football with a beer.

Now you know why the cables in a community hall's in-house sound system have more kinks than Stephen Hawking's spine.

i think he was just looking for a reason because of his t shirt. We were ripping on the band but this guy was like really ripping on the band. From Montreal. lol. He really really hates that band as do most sane people but like this guy had a hate for them that was a little heavy handed. lol.

Just checking... Roll it up incircles and twist right? That's what I was told back in the day.

As long as you end up with a clean circle for storage, and not some kinked figure 8
