This year we are borrowing equipment from KBOO, Marcelo Spina, and Seamus. Marcelo is coordinating day-of setup, running of the sound board, and teardown. Is this where information about the stage goes?
All right....With Geek Fair over I can now say that it is well worth renting all the equipment we do not have from a single location, notably showcase sound on hawthorne. Hold this equipment well in advance to be safe. The equipment we need, at minimum, includes:
- mixing board with a fair amount of aux channels suitable for live
applications
- power amps, ( for mains and monitors) (showcase has power amp/mixing board combo)
- monitor speakers, (wedge type, self powered would be great!)
- compressors and possibly a crossover
- FX units, (reverb, EQ's, feedback eliminators)
- microphones, (dynamic and condenser)
- microphone stands
- cables, (XLR, 1/4", and speaker cords)
- headphones
- rack cases
- some way to play music between bands when nothing else is happening, like an mp3 player
the time is yesterday to start seeing who will donate these things for next year
