Gear Notes: Carcasonne and London
Carcasonne, FR
Venue: Theater de la Cite (translation, another castle…) capacity 2000, sold out, light rain.
FOH
console: Midas XL4
speakers Martin W8L, W8LC and some of the little square subs. I was going to look up the exact specs but yet again another lame ass site. And some of you wonder why people don’t buy more of some audio products. Considering how lame many if not most of the pro audio manufacturers sites are, it’s a wonder they sell anything at all. Though to be fair, when I was in the end of the biz that was buying a bunch of stuff to rent, we never did it from the Web alone. Though I haven’t been a buyer in that capacity in almost a decade. Powered by Lab Gruppen.

London, GB
Venue: London Tower Music Festival, capacity unknown, about 3/4 full. Big tent, get this, beside a castle. I’m ready to start banging two coconuts together and galloping like I were on a horse. It was actually quite a good gig, and being in Britain, we almost spoke the language.
