I came across this awesome video with Lawrence Manchester from The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. He's such a cool dude and knows his stuff, having been the main sound engineer for years. People like Lawrence, along with the Front of House and behind-the-scenes crew, are the real MVPs of live shows, making sure everything goes off without a hitch. As someone who deals with audio, I can't even begin to imagine the planning and setup needed to get broadcast-quality sound with so many performers. Absolutely incredible.
