Not on my stage

Re: Not on my stage

Wow... Are you inconvenienced by cables that aren't enormous and sheathed in hard plastic? Does coiling a 25' XLR just take too much time? Do you have a lot of space in the truck you need to fill, somehow? Stage Ninja is for you!

Oh you gotta watch this... they have it in Speakon too... up to sixty feet! I'd want to make sure everyone on deck is wearing a protective cup before you kick the auto rewind in on a 60' Speakon line. Shinguards too probably! 8O~8-O~:shock:

I smell an endorsement deal in the works! Have "Brent" do some of that custom work he keeps bragging about. . . maybe a few drop snakes, feeder cable, 12/3 w/ quads. . . at the end of the gig you could just back the truck up, give one swift yank and the whole lot would snap back into the van.

The funny part about the yellow extension cable, is that Sears has sold a cable on a retractable reel just like this for YEARS in the automative dept, and their cable is actually BLACK!!! Not that I would ever want one on a stage, but I bet the sears one is way cheaper too!

I also LOVE how the DJ model is backwards. In their minds, this is the next best thing for powered speakers, but I guarantee someone will use it for a mic and leave the big plastic deal hanging halfway down the mic stand. There should be an official $5 reward for the first real world photo posted of a DJ using one backwards like this!! :eek:~:-o~:eek:
 
Re: Not on my stage

One quasi-serious question - are there rotary contacts in this thing somehow which allows one end to be fixed? If not, how are they handling the 75 revolutions it takes to wind the cable in?
 
Re: Not on my stage

I suspose you could hang a XLR on your dogs collar and use this for a quick release leash.


Actually, I can think of some stage hands, that might need a leash.
 
Re: Not on my stage

a few of these combined with my new top secret inflatable "gig in a box" (allows any size production set-up in absurdly minimal time) and I'll be on my way to easy street.

I've always dreamt about having a transporter star trek-style, so I could have the stage pre-rigged and just beam it into any venue, connect a snake, power and then start the first song.....
