Sean and Andy start off 2026 with a bang, as live sound “renaissance man” Danny Abelson joins the show to discuss a wide range of bold positions, from how to prepare for a career in live audio to whether or not the quality of sound at shows today has kept up with the quality of the gear available to us to use at them. This episode is sponsored by Allen & Heath and RCF.With a 50-plus-year career that started as a teenager working in New York City in the middle of “anything and everything” in the live music industry in the 70s, becoming friends and eventually in-laws with one of Clair's first employees, as well as having one of the Taits as another in-law, if you saw Danny's life story in a movie, you might not believe it's real! From touring with the Eagles and Cheap Trick in the 70s to a theatre degree in the 80s and mixing NFL, MLB, and D1 sports, as well as long tenures on the manufacturing/distribution side of the industry for companies ranging from Turbosound to ATI mixing consoles, high-density Wi-Fi and ultrasonic signaling, and installations in venues as varied as Carnegie Hall, the Grand Ole Opry, and Lambeau Field, there's quite literally nothing in the live sound field that Danny hasn't done at some point!Danny has written many articles published in Live Sound and FOH magazines, and currently writes the monthly “FOH-At-Large” column with close friend and writing partner Dave Natale for front of house. He is member of the Parnelli Awards Board of Advisors.Episode Links:Danny Abelson Archive On ProSoundWebSignal To Noise Episode 57 With Wayne PauleySignal To Noise Episode 287 The Return Of Wayne PauleyFOH Blog Meet The New GuysEpisode 312 TranscriptConnect with the community on the Signal To Noise Facebook Group and Discord Server.
