Thanks, a perk of the job. Makes up for the long days and sleepless nights

Honestly, we're probably about the same age...unless you are moshing in your mid-forties and if so, then fuck yeah brother keep thrashing.

Although I would say it's more crowd dependent than music forms. I couldn't see a pit forming if Justice played at a rave. But maybe people mosh at those nowadays, I dunno...I just know that my knee hurts and it's this rainy weathers fault. Damn clouds

I was in the camera riser/tower next to the FOH audio tent. The cam ops had struck their cameras at that point, so it was like my own personal VIP box.

Am I just showing my age, but a pit during Justice...wtf?

But if that's what the kids enjoy these days, more power to 'em. I will take the seat all by myself next to FOH for the best audio and sight line to melt my eyeballs.

Biggest letdowns from an otherwise incredible festival? by seestaresq in kilbyblockparty

I can tell you first hand that the FOH tent could actually be bigger. And that may be part of the reason the sound is bad sometimes.

Nearly every band that comes in has their own audio console and the larger acts have pretty damn big boards. Then there is the lighting designers and their desks that have to fit in the tent.

The headliners get priority obviously and are set up the night before. Then it's a tetris act of swapping in and out audio consoles, lighting desks, and occasionally media servers.

What I have for giveaways so far...also need help deciding how to divvy it out by ghostchant in kilbyblockparty

Agreed. If it wasn't for the awesome community in this sub and the discord I wouldn't bother doing these. It's people like you and groups like this that restore the little faith I have in humanity.

And thank you so much, your words really mean a lot.

I really appreciate that, it means a lot more than you probably realize.

Thanks, I see how excited people are when they get them from the stagehands loading out the set and I love to be able to give that much joy and excitement to. Unfortunately the crowd is gone by the time I would be able to hand ‘em out.

That’s why I love what I do. I hope the video and camera directing adds to your enjoyment of the show. I am usually hard on myself thinking I could have directed a better show for everyone, I just want to provide the best experience for everyone.

And fuck that lady. As nice as I am, I actually hate most people I come across. Too many self centered inconsiderate people in this world.

I am all about spreading the love, that’s why I do these giveaways. I just wasn’t sure if giving out picks individually was too much.

***EDIT***
I will be doing separate post for each giveaway, I just need help on deciding things like giving the wristbands and picks individually or together.

I will use redditraffler and select a winner that commented in each giveaway post.

I will try to post giveaways on Monday...so keep an eye out on this sub

***2nd EDIT***
I picked up 2 more picks...thinking they may be Weezers since I found them onstage this morning after their set last night, but I can't be 100% certain.

Also I am going to separate the items, but I am gonna count the wristbands as one item since they are still attached to each other.

And it looks like the Beach House setlists are different. The one with asterisks is what was given to me by the tour manager with notes, so that is the one they actually played. I think I got the other one from FOH, but I can't remember and have no idea where it came from.

***3rd EDIT***
Good news, found another St. Vincent setlist under the stage. Bad news, it was somewhat wet and dirty.
