13 things I´ve learned playing live in 2025 that (almost) nobody talks about.

Sorry, I don´t have a "Gear of the Year" 2025 video, I´ve been moving into a new place, had some family things to take care of and some more gigs to play. Anyway, here´s what I´ve picked up on this year when it comes to playing live with intent and enjoyment. Super subjective of course, so please share your own top tips and experiences!
