And as for the second bit, when you're in a noisy bar full of people playing pool, drinking and talking too loud you need something to.... get their attention.
And nothing works quite as well as a sucker punch  Misrlou ain't the ballsiest thing we do, and I don't really don't like watching bands who kinda slink up and go "Excuse us, is it ok to play some music??"

Well like I said a lot depends on the gig and reading the crowd. If we're following another band or are playing for a 1000 rowdy bikers, i'm coming out of the gate pedal to the metal. As far as a sound check I'm familiar with my equipment enough not to need one. IMO they're distracting and annoying to the audience....
