The "Marathon Gig": Managing breaks

You're playing a 4-hour corporate event. You're in the zone. You lose track of time. You play for 90 minutes straight. The caterer is frantically waving at you to stop so they can serve dinner. You look unprofessional.

The Old Way: Trying to do math in your head while playing guitar. "We started at 7:15... plus 45 minutes..."

The Bandfix Way: Setlist Breaks.

  • Visual Cues: Insert a "Break" card directly into your setlist after song #12.
  • Stop Sign: When you finish song #12 and swipe, you see a giant "BREAK" screen. You can't miss it.
  • Timer: It even has a countdown timer so you know exactly when to go back on stage.

Pro Tip: Add notes to the break card like "Announce the buffet is open."
