[QUOTE="Ivan Beaver, post: 74102, member: 30"] Re: a thoroughly done job. The smoke was just part of the show. I have actually had a couple of speakers caught on fire-back in my days. The first by itself catching on fire and this was BEFORE the band started playing. Just playing background music. That one still baffles me. 2: One by fireworks landing on top of the cabinet. 3: The wildest one was when I was lazy and didn't want to pull out the trees for the par cans for the gig. The band talked me into giving them lights for free-so I didn't run a controller and just plugged them in. After a little while the carpet on top caught on fire and I had left my fire extinguisher in the truck. Several people in the wedding party were shaking up bottle of coke and mountain dew and spraying them on the cabinet-while I ran for the fire extinguisher. No real damage-but I carried the extinguisher to the side of the stage after that. That does not count the probably HUNDREDS of drivers that have pumped out lots of smoke during gigs over the years. Just the ones that produced flames. I got into reconing to save myself money. And to make some more on the side. [/QUOTE]
