Another day another dollar...
« on: February 03, 2013, 02:37:05 PM »

I'm now on my 4th corporate event of the year, 3 at a week each, 1 at 2 days. We are in the middle of our second day of load in for a beer meeting in Phoenix AZ. It took a while to get 120 motors up, and the house light trusses are being loaded now. Sound is sitting around right now, so I thought I'd put up some pics from yesterday.

Looking at your pics makes me miss my old profession a little.  The waiter trays under the riser legs.  His and hers dueling Instant Replays.  Still another hideously ugly hotel carpet.

But then I remember the aching knees and back.  And the mind-numbing rehearsals.  And the midnight room service (since that's when you get to go back to your room).  And I realize I don't have it so bad after all. 

I do envy working on that desk you have there though.  That is one sweet piece o' gear....

All that for a dollar a day-somebody is getting a GREAT deal!

Don't worry-your time will come to work.

Remember that dollar a day is 59 cents after taxes  ;)

And as someone else has pointed out ANOTHER hideous hotel ballroom carpet.

That's a very impressive event. :)

Following the news here we get the impression that the US economy is down, leading to "unecessary stuff" being slashed from purchase lists.

I suppose beer still sells well in a recession!

Impressive Mac, I could have soooo much fun screwing that rig up. One thing that stands out are the clearly marked EXITs, nice to see that for a change.

Whose the #4 on the cases?

Could be "4Productions"…based out of Boston, I think.  We had them in a few days ago - nice bunch of people to talk shop with.

Look like rentals from 4Wall.

I too like the dueling Instant Replays.
