I thought some gear was stolen.

Please don't laugh to hard at this. Last night I went to help a friend out with a party. He needed another speaker as he doesn't have enough to cover this restaurant he was playing in. So I went there to help out. The party was a fund raiser to help students with a scholarship.

I get there and went to unload the van with the gear I brought. All together I brought over 2k worth of gear with me. I brought some lights, my laptop with my HD, one powered speaker, my camera and wiring. I get in a door that has an elevator. I put the stuff on the elevator. The elevator won't go to the basement and the stairs to the basement had a gated door that was locked. So I went around through the front to access the elevator. I tell the lady working there why I was there and proceeded to the elevator. I get there and don't see the gear in the elevator. So I freak out.

I finally call the police thinking someone has stolen my gear. They get there and the long story short I think someone has moved my van from where I parked it and everything. As it turned out I put the gear on one elevator and there was another elevator in the complex. Both entrances to both elevators looked the same. Nobody stole the gear. I was just at the wrong elevator.

I just told the police please don't laugh to hard when you get back to the station telling that story.

Yes I was planning on taking pictures for the party and wanted to jazz it up with some more lights then just the one Derby he uses. I just brought the wires just in case if they were needed. As it turns out he forgot his mic and mine is in the case.

Also I was thinking of having my birthday party in this restaurant. My birthday isn't until June 2nd. I like the place because it's a small place. You don't need a ton of people in the place to make the party look like it's a success.

The sad part is my friend had a powered speaker up front in another room that the woofer got blown. The 2 big things that caused that is the speaker was being fed to much volume and it was an Alto speaker. A sales man at GC tried to talk me into buying a pair of those crappy speakers. I refuse to even listen to them. I know I wanted something that was for real and not some fake garbage.

I simply made this thread so you all could have a great laugh.
