more about "Saturday Night Live - Wayne's World -...", posted with vodpodBarry: [ gets up ] Yeah. Okay, what I do is make sure everyone's got their gear on, and I cue their guitars, and I bring 'em out onstage.. [ demos ] ..and I start the mikes and make the sure the scarves are always in the right place.. and then, the most important thing - I gotta do a sound check. [ pulls the mike forward ] "Check.
