Does Paulo Franco need a Sound System to perform?
Yes, if you need a full quality and a exciting environment yes. Paulo Franco usually brings his own Pro Microphone, and the backing track files to be loaded on your sound system. However, there's some cases that the client wants only a very acoustic unique mood for some entrance or welcome hall, it can be done without sound system. In the case it to be a Band Gig, it only can be done with Sound System.
