I have to admit it - I'm pretty fucking good.
I pulled a variety show out of my ass with only a set list and minimal attention paid during rehearsal because we were too busy setting up the extravaganza in the main lobby.
Of course, when the opening number started and I didn't have any of the lights I had been intending on using, concern set in, but I back lit it with what I had and then waited for the end bump to hit the "lamp strike" button - the blinding sweep caused by that button looked like a cue and thanks to the singer's mindless name dropping banter, the lights had time enough to warm up.
I will say this - I never expected to say "Ok, spot 1 - stand by to fade off of the coat rack...."
I have my moments.
