Production Nightmare

Hey everyone I got some time to get this new blog out to you now. Well the past month of December has been pretty crazy. Between working and doing the whole holiday season too, the days tended to run into one another which are the cause of this delayed blog. We last left off with the Bonerama shows from earlier this month. Afterwards I snagged a couple extra shows with my local clients in Baltimore (Basshound, Damn Right, and Earthtone). It was definitely a lot of fun running around with these guys spanning from Newark, Delaware to Annapolis, MD. Let’s just say I got to rekindle some old memories with my friend Jim Beam after the gigs.

So here's an older blog I found recently that I wanted to post while I'm working on a new one for you all. I should have it up soon. Thanks!

OK this next blog starts here sitting in a hotel here in Richmond, Va. Currently I’m on tour with Porter Batiste Stoltz some of the damn funkiest musicians to come out of New Orleans, LA. Beginning where I left off on the last blog I had a lot of downtime once I got off the last tour so I did some local shows with good friends Damn Right, Basshound, and Earthtone, worked on my Porter Batiste Stoltz cues I needed to have ready for this current tour, start looking for some new pieces of gear to incorporate into the show, go over some repairs and obtain accessories I needed for this trip. 

Hey all, I just got back from a pretty hectic month. I am currently working on my new blog and it will post soon. For now,… Read More »An extra blog found

So I get this call from Upstaging Lighting last week. They want to do a demo of their vast array of equipment to their clients during the Christmas time. They have asked me to put together a system that shows off the latest lighting and video toys they own.

Well this has absolutely nothing to do with lights, it has to do with this win streak I've seemed to acquire over the last 30 years. It seems that whatever town/state I move to, their NFL team becomes a winner.

Hey, hey the time has come for another blog. I just got done the last part of Bonerama’s east coast tour since the last time I posted. Some interesting developments have happened after the Baltimore show at the 8 x 10. Since I live here in the Baltimore area and we had a few days of down time. I invited a few of the guys from the band to have a couple of beers and talk about some ideas I have for the lighting design in the future. So I pulled my notes and made a master list in chronological order based on what we should move toward first.

I attend a couple conventions every year. Of course they have to do with Lighting and video equipment. But I attend a lot more of them for another reason. To get paid.
