I am glad to say the first outdoor show got up and running without too many hitches. The weather cooperated for the most part. Rain is especially scary in the Edith theatre because we are running 9 powered speakers and a big QLab computer rig 100 yards away from any cover. Yikes. It sounds amazing, though. 2 years ago when I was here, we just had the stock crappy speakers that the O'Neill owned. We made it work, but compared to this amazing Meyer rig, there is just no comparison. Way cool. The show is called "Firework" which some actual fireworks cues at the end. We got them sounding so realistic we have seem many people wandering around looking up into the sky wondering where they are coming from. So here's the trick: 4 Meyer 18" subs, and a bunch of Meyer UPAs will get you fantastic fake fireworks. :-)
Tech did go til 1 or so. I am TIRED. Lunch was particularly unattractive as well, so I mostly skipped it. Just saving up for when we head to Outback Steakhouse tonight. Al's boss has a coupon for a free Bloomin' Onion. Woot.
We might get to go diving next week as well!! I'll keep you posted.
If you weren't already such a #17, I'd be concerned that you seemed to have gone anorexic on us... :)
ReplyDeleteI know, right? I might waste away to "overweight" as opposed to "obese"
