Man. What a crazy day Rock The Bells SF was

LONG TOO

Lobby call was 1230 am and load in started promptly at 1 am

What is a 1 am call time? Early n awesome or not awesome

Normally, on large events you try to have the rig loaded in the day before,

but some country music group had the arena the day before, so alas load in the day of

whatever

I guess we had to roll with it
the rig went up fast, and sounded great quick … Orlando is a beast of a system tech

THE MIGHTY ATLAS RACKS AT FOH MAINSTAGE

After some checking from the Miss Hill crew, suddenly it was morning and

before we knew any better the show was starting

I was excited, because the artist I had to mix went 2nd to last  and not last (on the longest day of the show)

I dont think I would have been as keen on the mix if I would have had to fully use my brain for another 2 hours, after I was done mixing Nas

(for the record, I only had to save after Miss Hill’s set .. no mixing for me…I enjoyed that after an almost 24 hour day )

The two tallest FOHs. Under the shortest tent thing.   (Phil Strong FOH for Common)

Shoreline staff and local production people said they had never felt the arena shake like that (with regards to the bass for Nas)  … I mentioned thats how we do.

After RTB SF I got extra pumped for NY

RTB NYC up next

Its on!
