I have to agree with Chris...been there, done that. Try doing the same thing you're talking about with only three techs. I can't believe you had that many techs for one little piece of truss and some Genie towers. LOL

Why using so much ETC lights?

holy crap! if our load in took this long we would have to charge twice as much!!

@bo0tsy1 - Because i use steel as safety, because i do things by the book? So let me guess you don't "deadhang" i normal d8 (single break) either? 

[bo0tsy1]

@lighttech258852 I'd put my faith in a spanset before I'd put my faith in YOUR rubbish rigging.

[lighttech258852]

@bo0tsy1 - So you give a crap about safety, for the people below YOUR rubbish rigging?

[bo0tsy1]

@lighttech258852 Let me guess, send me a picture and you will never set foot on my show. You are a typical lighting guy, you don't realize that is IT ALL SOUNDS THE SAME IN THE DARK.

@bobfenders Why are they using source fours. THEY ARE REAL LIGHTING FIXTURES! 500w bulb outputting 1kw. Not your american DJ specials.

[lighttech258852]

@bo0tsy1 - Let me guess you are a american?

[bo0tsy1]

@lighttech258852 It wasn't the rig it was the shitty union built structure. You are a moron and a typical lighting "guy".

[lighttech258852]

@bo0tsy1 - Are you stupid? If the buildings caughts fire, and fire/rescue services go in to save people they should no be at risk to get a complete lighting rig i the head, becuase some smart ass rigger thinks he is smarter then the rules! ALWAYS follow the rules, is people like you there not should be aloud in the buisness!

[bo0tsy1]

@lighttech258852 I'm pretty sure the chance of fire is unlikely, in STEEL OR ALUMINUM truss. I know the rules, union wants steel, non union doesn't care. It's also the difference of knowing and communication with the venue. If a fire breaks out, from socapex, your pick line SHOULD be independent. Too bad you lighting guys can't work a fire extinguisher...
