[QUOTE="Langston Holland, post: 2800, member: 171"] To whom it may concern: Bennett Prescott is a very, very bright young man. He is a bit cautious in his online posts and articles, but when you get him on a panel and he starts talking, you immediately find out that he knows way more than most folks in this industry at twice his age. His experience with sub arrays in particular filled much of a page of notes I was taking. He's also one of the most gracious and enjoyable people I've ever had the honor of being with. Jeff Knorr is probably going to take over the live sound industry. His passion for excellence and curiosity for knowledge appears to be insatiable. It shouldn't be legal to have that much energy and intellect at his age. The Syn-Aud-Con folks are my mentors. Don Davis and the huge family he created and his incredible workshops are where I moonlighted beginning in the late 80's. Tom Young, Ray Rayburn, Dale Shirk, Charlie Hughes, etc., etc., etc. These people are giants. What an honor to shake their hands. You live-sound-only types need to get over yourselves and join Syn-Aud-Con. And then the most breathtaking experience I've ever had in this industry occurred this weekend. I was absolutely humbled by the love that Dave Gunness, Rich Frembes, Jamie and Karen Anderson, and Calvert Dayton have for each other. I'm sure there are a few others in their crew that share in this special relationship, but one thing that struck me was how important it is to have a small group of people to hold to in life that you are absolutely loyal to. I spent an evening with these people and almost felt embarrassed to be in their presence. I have found what I've always wanted to do vocationally, and this is it and these are the people I want to emulate. [/QUOTE]
