165: KEITH KNOBLER/Monitor Engineer, Head of Audio/Bill Graham Civic Auditorium

Keith Knobler is the Head of Audio at the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium in San Francisco, CA. Over the last 30 years he has honed his skills as a monitor engineer at some of the areas preeminent venues such as Slim's, the Great American Music Hall, Maritime Hall, Covered Wagon Saloon, and On Broadway.

He grew up in Westhampton, Long Island but after high school decided to head west to see what opportunities existed for him. He used his interest in journalism to find work around town which helped him gain access to clubs and shows. On the advice of a friend at the Fillmore he started mixing bands in the small "poster" room upstairs and immediately a love affair with audio was born.

The audio crew took him under their wing and over the next four years trained and mentored him. Eventually he started mixing monitors at the Fillmore and the rest as they say, is history.

He's been a member of IATSE local 16 since 2007 and has worked with thousands of artists including the Chris Robinson Brotherhood, Hot Tuna, and Cock Sparrer.

Today's episode is sponsored by Boulevard Carroll, Lensrentals, & Airturn.
