Got up at the crack of dawn only to find the bus still rolling. Rumors are flying that the venue has an… interesting… loading situation. Since I’m on a permanent stage right next to the mainstage we’re sharing the dock. Bus finally stops and I take a look outside. No venue, nothing but a long line of busses and trucks. More rumors start flying, did anyone tell the venue we were loading in at 7am? Finally a golf cart is scrounged up and us audio guys are picked up.
Very well composed shot taken from my phone off the back of moving golf cart.

We get there and set up. Not our usual day at the office.

Most of the mainstage system is going to the Uproar tour, but some all my gear was going back to the shop as well as some extra gear they didnt need. They did need some mics from me, which resulted in a game of musical chairs to get them over.

Both mobile stages were canned so we had the esteemed honor of hosting four of the Jagermiester bands on our stage. By the time 3 Inches of Blood came on the place was getting packed.

I mixed Shadows Fall, Chimaria, and Hatebreed.

Had to keep moving the blue light for the com. Another 100+ day so sunlight was my enemy. Console started burning my hands so I had to improvise.

And by 6:20 we’re all done and the mainstage gets rolling.

Time to pack up everything and fork it over to god-knows-where-they-parked-the-truck.
