Trevor Dunn (Tomahawk, Melvins Lite, Fantomas, and formerly of Mr. Bungle)

SPB: What part of your live show is the hardest on sound engineers?

Dunn: I wouldn't know because 1) I stand in front of my 8x10 so that I have the best possible sound in the entire place and that's all I care about and 2) we bring our own sound guy. We not only pay him to make us sound good but also to keep his mouth shut and not whine. I wish I was a millionaire so I could pay more people for that in particular.
