This should be an INSANE next few weeks. Check this out:
Jan 16th - Contempt @ MI5, NYC (club lighting gig)
Jan 18th - Drive down to DC and begin hanging the rig for the (sold-out, $1000-a-seat) Jay-Z show @ the Warner Theater.
Jan 19th - Starting at 6am, put the finishing touches on the Jay-Z rig and get ready for the bedlam that will inevitably ensue.
Jan 20th - Warner Theater gig part two: Stevie Wonder and guests, for a special Inaugural Eve celebration (rumor has it that President-elect Obama will be in attendance for at least a portion of the evening).
Jan 21st - Move the rig from the Warner Theater to the DC Armory for a second Jay-Z show, added to accommodate those who can't make it to the one on the 19th.
Jan 22nd - lug all that shit back to the shop and take a deep breath, because...
Feb 11th - Arrive at Katsucon @ Hyatt Crystal City, VA
Feb 12th - Begin "hanging" the lighting rig for Katsucon (Feb 13-15)
Feb 13th - Katsucon! Where I'll be running the lights this year (I usually run sound at this event, but
kraftwink has a prior commitment with the Pennsylvania Ballet, so I am filling in).
Feb 14th - my alter ego DJ Luminal takes to the turntables for another adrenaline filled evening of awesome!
Feb 15th - tear down the Katsu setup
Feb 16th - lug all that shit back to the shop and take a DEEPER breath, because...
Feb 20th - Arrive at WickedFaire @ Hanover Marriott, Whippany NJ and hang the lighting rig
Feb 21st - Wicked Faire!
Feb 22nd - more Wicked Faire, then tear down the rig and lug all that shit back to the shop.
Feb 23rd - Maybe finally get a good night's sleep :)
