Wedding Gig Log

0:01 Got the Gobo Spheres from Nova Pro

Right, I'm at a place called the Lord Hill in Shrewsbury and I am set up. So I have the KS212C subs from QSC, they're the Dual 12, the K12.2, same on exactly the other side, and that there is the K8 for a monitor. Got the Gobo Spheres from Nova Pro. And I've just actually noticed, I haven't wired those in yet, but there you go. Okay, so we have the Party Bar 100 DMX, we have the Derby 9s as well, usual setup, and that's about it. It's got the XDJ-RX, I have the laptop with VirtualDJ, and that's pretty much it. So, as I say, less is more, and quite a nice wedding this. It's slightly different, slightly gothic. But there's the setup. It's just simple, neat, tidy. You know? That's all you want. And the great thing is I've just noticed actually there's party bars. One's higher than the other so I'll have to sort that out very shortly. It does look a bit dodgy like that. Don't like that. There has to be some form of symmetry. Okay. And...

1:31 I believe, what's that?

I believe, what's that? Hold on. 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 90, about 100 or so people, give or take. That's for the sit-down meal and maybe more later on. So very interesting as usual. Simple setup, quick setup as well. And something here that is actually really important. This venue has requested my public liability insurance, which of course I sent, and PAT test certificates. So of course you've got to make sure everything's PAT tested. That's why you have those little green stickers just there. So why do you want things PAT tested? Well, some, not all, some venues do request that you have proof that items have been PAT tested. Most venues, I'll be honest with you... Thank you for watching. Halfway through the night, something goes off. It could be because there's a loose connection in it. A pack test machine will check that to make sure there's nothing wrong with it. So if anything, it's peace of mind for you as well as the client or establishment where you're working. Right, so I have my Spangly shirt. Well, not Spangly, just a bit loud shirt for later on. I've got my black boots. I have my trousers there ready and...

That is it. So I should be doing a few, taking pictures and a bit more video later on. Now something that I always try and do is get to a venue early. I like to get somewhere early and today is just bliss for me because look, no one's here. So not only am I here early to set up but also I'm not interfering with any of... The staff, the guests, I'm not in the way. Everyone is just doing their thing. I've come in here and I can make as much noise as I want without disturbing anybody. So there you go. Right, so short video log here. More to come. Practice and enjoy. Thank you.
