Would you rather see a band with an amazing singer hit lots of bad notes because she can't hear herself? A lot of venues have monitor mixes that are questionable, at best, and for a band with a melodic singer, this can be a serious problem. Sure, if you're in a grind or death metal band where you don't need to worry about being on pitch, this is pretty much irrelevant...but for a band like Todesbonden, being on pitch is key (no pun intended) to having a good performance...and if they have a way to control their own monitor mix, then why not? It's not really much more time-consuming than going straight into the venue's input box, and they probably have preset levels that they can tweak from if need be.
Shroud has entirely too much experience with bad monitor mixes, and we've definitely talked about the possibility of getting in-ears for our singers...and probably will do so at some point in the future.
Professionalism is very important, and I think that whatever it takes to get the best possible live performance is worth pursuing if it's not completely unreasonable.
