In truth, for the show I mix the DI is mainly a backup and doesn't get heard. But the artists aren't in the live room for most of the show and have to go in and get situated and tuned during a 2-minute commercial break, and a couple of them have knocked the guitar mic akimbo in the process. On the other hand, quite a few have gone in and forgotten to plug in the guitar cable.
