hell ill break down during a band if the set is bad enough.
It sucks that open tapers have their big rigs with light stands and clamps and all that jazz. Breaking down mid-set for an open-taper is akin to someone in the audience pulling out a megaphone and saying "HAY GUYZ, THIS BAND SUCKS AND I WILL NOW LEAVE THANKS."
I'm not saying that it's right, but it sure does suck. This is why stealthing is nice even in non-stealth situations.
Fake Edit: As a sidenote, I wanted to put in a ninja smiley or a "stealth taper" smiley but there isn't one. Then I realized this board has virtually no smileys related to taping. What's up with that. How am I supposed to create entire posts using only emoticons if I have no 16 x 16 gif that says "Hey, I stealth!"
