So, after 30 years of doing live sound and lights and theatre, I have my first call with IATSE tomorrow!

It is the Bush/Live concert at CMAC. I am so stoked, and am ready to prove my skills.

Christmas in June!

45 in Rochester, NY. Been trying to get into Syracuse, but never get called back...my mentors, one who just passed, have vouched for me for years in Syracuse. Sam vouched in Rochester today and I was called.

I have done live sound since I was 15, and even toured with small time bands.

I am so happy to prove my worth tomorrow...

What local r u?

And btw, I am a union electrician....thought it would help me 15 years ago to get in....

And please, when I die, at the end of my funeral...play The Load Out/Stay...

Always kind of thought that Bush and Live, were secretly the same band.
Keep an eye-out for that, ok?

Still get confused between Our Lady Peace, and I Mother Earth.
Such similar names, no?

Anyways: gratzi on scoring the gig, and remember to turn-up the bass-player... LoL.

Back b4 headsets, stagehands would whistle certain notes as cues to drop a fly or other stage directions.....so the wrong whistle would get a fly dropped on your head, or worse....

If you ever decide to relocate. Besides Netflix, NBC Universal just opened a studio here with Disney coming back... IATSE is having a membership drive. I'm tryin to stay above the line but that union scale looks very enticing.
