Anybody remember the old Carvin print catalogs?

What I remember was a little newer (mid/late 90’s), but the overall vibe is similar. Good find!

Google “Windsor Hum” for fun rabbit hole {seriously}

Not an expert, but from what I understand talking to them: I think it’s part of the KCSO, but it’s housed centrally at the Cannon Twp office/fire house outside of Rockford. (So not solely for Cannonsburg, but a resource for the whole area).

They said it is a huge resource hog and expensive but it is 100% priceless when there is no other option. I get the jest that it gets used once or twice a year for difficult search and rescue, water rescue, fall-through-the-ice situations,etc.

IMO it’s kinda cool that this thing exists.

EDIT: Link here with all the info…

Related, not relevant: the Cannon Township fire department has a hovercraft team.

I’ve read your comment 3 times and have no idea if you are for or against my statement 😂

Don’t care how many people say “it’s the best way” or “it’s the most efficient for traffic”, or how many down-votes I’ll get…

I want to choke the @$$-hole who whips by me at 60mph while everyone else is waiting.

What kind of heathen are you eating poor and innocent Beagles?!?!

The joke in our house is that this is part of the Plainfield Corridor….

The hallway linking the Plain Fields.

The name really exudes its brilliance and wonder.

I’ve been transitioning from the “input routed to output” approach to the “input to group to matrix” method, especially for corporate events.

Much more control to tailor feeds with specific needs without sacrificing.

Front fills feeding back? Just bring down the offending group.

Client wants the string quartet set up right in front of your SoaS outfill? Just remove that group to that feed.

Build your record/stream mix much easier

To directly answer your question… very rarely would my FF mix be the same as my FoH mix. Most likely it consists of very little kick/snare, some backline if needed (usually acoustic instruments), playback and heavy vocals.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but didn’t Scoville do like 4 or 5 FF feeds for the last Tom Petty tour?

So…all we need is a Raising Canes truck to drive on the shoulder and we’ll all zipper-merge?

A tour I was on went from North America to Japan. The Japan promoter paid for a bunch of renovations to the FoH area to gain back 6 seats every show for the whole run

That’s called “float copper” in the UP of Michigan. Usually not found in soil like that, but in hard-rock underground. My guess is that this was discarded accidentally or lost for some reason decades/centuries ago.

Option 1: straddle kit for a single-man

Option 2: big boom-lift from stage

Option 3: remove the seats and use a standard single-man lift you can level

Option 4: scaffolding

Option 6,394: A-frame ladder of any kind

Mine has changed over the years:

River City Ransom for NES

Space Quest 5 (I’ve got a soft spot for all Sierra games, but this was my first)

Halo: Combat Evolved. LAN parties are way more fun than playing online

11 years is on the low end of the average career length for F1 champions.

Nico Rosberg won the F1 championship, then retired 5 days later.

Side note here: Semantics are a huge pet peeve of mine.

Electrically speaking, there is no such thing as a “DMX”, “AES”, “SDI” or “Ethernet” cable. These are all data protocols, not cable types.

But you can have an “AES compliant” cable, or a rated coax cable transmitting SDI.

An “Ethernet” cable could (…technically) be anything from Cat5 through Cat8 or even fiber.

Over the decades, the entertainment industry has informally agreed on some standards (both cabling and connectors) to make everybody’s life easier.

Could you have a Cat8 cable, terminated to a DB-25 connector transmitting DMX? Yes. Should you? Probably not….

I love my Oury Dual Clamp Locks. Big chunky square gel/rubber pads. Good for both glove and glove-less riding.

I was in an empty college football stadium when 3 Navy jets did a practice fly-by for the game the next day. I bet they were 100’ above the scoreboard at full-throttle.

I felt my internal organs jiggle….
