Arnoldo and I have had discussions about schools prior to his decision to create his school series of webinars. I can't cite him for feeling that its a good idea to turn his experience into cash, but I also believe that these forums are supposed to be a great resource of free information. As...

All part of a grander plan. For now I tried to incorporate the testimonials into the beginning of the video. As we work with more schools this year, I'll begin trying to shoot more footage of testimonials. I'm not personally a fan of soliciting testimonials from kids/clients but rather prefer...

I thought I'd post a little bit of our 2011 school/college promotional blitz that is getting underway. As we get more and more materials finished and I have time to upload them, I'll be happy to share them with the masses. Additionally, I'm more than happy to answer any questions that any of...

Got one, had it for years. Love it. At this point, however, I really don't need it. Literally everything has wheels, even my speaker stands! It'll stay in the back though because it comes in handy every once in a while, and clients like to borrow it.

Hey Guys, I thought I'd share our newest purchase with the community. After a couple years of acquiring lighting, it finally became time to invest in some nice cases to protect it. Over time I've bought cases for each fixture, but it's gotten to a point where the load and unload is...

Ben- Absolutely. This is a purchase that's going to take some time for us to decide on as far as how to configure, but I'd definitely like insight as well as suggestions you might have about how to best incorporate this into our show. I doubt we'd be able to plunge in and pick up a full 10...

The thing I like about this particular system is it's versatility. I have the option of pole mounting, but chances are I'll also make use of the ability to fly the system as well. With such lightweight cabinets, I don't think I'd have trouble flying the top cabinets from my current trussing rig...

I wanted to throw out some links and see what everyone else thinks of this system. You all know that I have a love for all things QSC, but I really liked this concept when I saw it. Essentially, the KLA series is a modular powered line array system combining the features...

Thats because you're not showing your schools what a huge fundraising profit opportunity they're missing out on. Our middle schools make anywhere from $1500-2000 on each dance AFTER expenses with our show, marketing/promotion and novelty sale options. To win a school- you've got to show them...

All 4 schools were clients from this past year, all of which were so pleased with our performance that they wanted to ensure we'd have their date available by booking literally on the first day of the year. We'll be playing new venues this year and with new venues come new opportunities and...

Best # and email to contact you at? You can PM me if you'd prefer. I'll shoot him your info. He's a college student, but he does good work, is patient with modifications and changes, and is a perfectionist so everything comes out looking great.

Hey man, if you're still looking for someone to design some stuff for you, let me know and I'll put you in touch with my graphics guy who did my 3 school flyers for this fall, last year and this year's prom materials.

I'll see what I can do. My graphics guy is working on the fall promo kit this week. For the record- the hand holding among team captains is rather well known, especially in the south, as a symbol of camaraderie amongst team members. People will make jokes about anything though.

Well, thank you for your mature contribution.

I don't mean the venue doesn't have enough power- I mean 4 QSC 18's are causing the lights to fall out of the cieling of the ballroom.

Power is like buying gas for your car. Sure you can drive a sleek little sedan that gets great gas mileage and looks good....or you can drive a truck that guzzles it but blows the competition away. I have no problem requiring my school clients to provide 10 dedicated 20A outlets. The only...

Thanks Scott. I won't be jumping into a $10,000 sound upgrade right away as I just put about $5,000 into sound this year already- but it's not unreasonable for prom season next year. I gotta work on lights now! I'll do my research. Chances are, if I go with an SRX cabinet, i'd go for a 3 way...

...and i was absolutely blown away. I rented a 4 piece system for a festival we played this weekend and it was enough and more. We were expected to cover a little under 1000 guests outside with a beach band and "background music" for a July 4th festival and I knew I'd need something more than...

I wouldn't but that's not to say that it doesn't have it's place. Is it overpriced- no, not technically speaking. It IS overpriced for many mobile jocks who need a functional mixer and little more. However, I feel that it's a solid product that, if being used to it's full capacity by a user...

I figured as much...sadly I noticed it as well. I like the design though and I think I'll just cut the "0" off of the 20 and move the 2 over a bit.

I don't think set up time has anything to do with issues out of the box. I set up my shows in a 2-5 hour window depending on the size of the event. Granted I set up more than most of the members here for even smaller shows so I do have to move at a good pace. This, however, does not mean that I...

Steve, Thanks for the compliment. No, we're not trying to convey any hidden messages through our marketing. Further inspection would reveal that the football scene in the background is actually the poster shot from the 2004 movie "Friday Night Lights". While I suppose we could go and edit the...

I concur ^^. I want to thank everyone for your help in letting me add another interactive activity to my catalog of tricks! Kristen and Jon's wedding was fabulous and the dance went off without so much as a hiccup. I attribute that to all of my networking friends who have helped me grow my...

I keep my stands in these: http://www.pssl.com/SKB-ATA-Freedom-Stand-Transport-s One of those holds 6 telelocks or 1 EZ Up and stores neatly on top of a pair of subs.

I have had my share of problems with Ultimate stands. I have 5 pairs now and one broken one. I had a roadie try to stand on a leg for leverage while removing an HPR122i and...he busted his ass, broke the stand and had a bruise the size of Maryland from acting as a speaker pillow...but he saved...
