Re: Critiquing Performances, Who And How Is it Done?
Personally, I occasionally recorder or video-record my solo performances to check myself for quality. With The Brothers Four and The Kingston Trio, we were pretty consistent. There were occasional off-nights, but not often. The advantage of being part of a group is that in most cases an individual goof-up can be covered by the rest of the group. Sometimes we'd be reviewed by an entertainment reporter for a local newspaper, but we were usually long gone by the time those articles were published. So unless a local fan would forward those reviews we wouldn't see them. Hey - we're professionals! We have this stuff down.
