Birdy Works Sound

Two days of tech, 34 microphones, the chaos of the cast being middle school age kids with a little more than two weeks spent on the show...

Wouldn't trade it for the world.

iPad mixing the opening act for First Friday in downtown Canton GA. So glad I brought a clip to the desk stand so my lazy butt doesn't have to hold my console the whole show.

Tonight is the start of a long run of shows, I don't think I'll be home much longer than to sleep until next Sunday afternoon.

My own chaotic little world.

I got the call for this musical Sunday night, the equipment Monday morning, zero rehearsal, I had another show on the other side of Atlanta this morning, and the first run starting now. Thankfully this is a very short kids musical or I would be 7 monsters deep.

Also it's good to have friends in this business to help you get things thrown together in a rush.

Running for Can't Drive 55 at the Grand. I think I finally figured this console out where I can start to dance on it rather than just make it work.

It's been three years since one of my mentors brought me out to this club, it had a slightly different name then. He was running FOH for an artist named Lilly Rose and we walked into a mess. Almost no house mics, and half the amps were blown for the PA. The band had an IEM rig and mics so covering them was lucky easy enough despite the PA struggling to keep up with the crowd. But there were two opening acts that were acoustic and with just enough equipment to get them going I was handed the console. Since then I've gotten to mix every kind of band on all but a few consoles, run musicals, corporate events, and have a studio where I put out some really cool music. But everything kinda came back around tonight because in the same venue with the same nearly shot PA, almost no house mics so I brought my own, I am mixing and was able to hand the console over to my own apprentice for the opening act.

A Tele and some tubes. Got in to do some tracking for me and decided a fake Matchless with my UT-Tube 87 and a 545sd had the sound. Not pictured is my UT-Twin87 in the room and my API 512v's flickering the red lights.
