This used to be the dive punk rock place. I have no idea what rig is in there. It just re-opened about a year or so ago. I hope it is much better than in the past. I think it is kind of off the radar since re-opening.

"Sun May 15 San Francisco Slims-5/15-1st, Great American-5/15-3rd"

To the best of my knowledge your San Francisco date will be at Slim's.

By the time you get there the FOH console will be an Avid Profile and the current FOH Yamaha M7cl will have been moved to monitor duty.

The speaker rig remains JBL Array series, A pair of 4894-45 traps on each side with one 4892 on the deck on each side as front fill. Monitors wedges are also JBL Array series model 4890. The drum fill is a JBL loaded 2x15 with a 2 inch throat horn.

The subs have been re-configured from the previous pair of JBL 2x18s on the floor each side of the stage to a cardioid array underneath.

And they're pretty sure that the problems with one of the neighbors will be well behind them by then:

Re: Coming to a city near you...

Hello Void,

My current plan is to be in France for the Month of April. If I can cut my trip back to only two weeks, I could be back in the States. It would be a pleasure to visit with you and then later in the Month with Evan K.

I'll have to keep you both advised of my schedule.

Cheers,
Hammer
 
Re: Coming to a city near you...

I had never heard of the DC venue. I looked it up and it turned out to be a synogue that is doing some pretty elaborate concerts. I couldn't find any tech info. I have a college class that night, but if there is anything I can do for you in advance let me know.
 
Re: Coming to a city near you...

Hmm... Let's see. I'm sure you know most of this, butL


Mon Apr 11 Denver Gothic -4/11-1st- KF850's & an old ass Soundcraft upstairs

Wed Apr 13 St. Louis The Pageant-4/13-2nd- One of my favorite venues! EV XLC, H1000 @ FOH. Easy load. Truck backs right up to the dock at the back of the stage

Sat Apr 16 Milwaukee The Rave II-4/16-1st- Old ass Martin rig. Midas verona out front. Worst sounding room of the bunch at that place.

Sun Apr 17 Chicago House of Blues-4/17-3rd- EV X-array, H2k. Lots of stairs! Great staff- if April is working, tell her I said hello.

Wed Apr 20 Cleveland House of Blues-4/20-2nd- EV XLC, H2k. Long push for load, but normally a good crew. Look for my name on the wall backstage.

Fri Apr 29 Myrtle Beach HOB- KF850's, CV/SB1000 subs, H2k. Super easy load. Check out the croc farm next door.

Tue May 03 Orlando HOB-Disney/Free afternoon show (t)- Haven't been in there since they put the new rig in. It's now a Soundbridge system in there... I'll be there on Tuesday.

Sun May 08 Dallas Cambridge Room-5/8-1st- Self powered EV rig. M7CL at FOH. Not a bad PA at all, you just can't hear it at FOH. Good crew as always.

Sat May 14 Anaheim/LA- LA House of Blues-5/14-3rd/Anaheim - - Least favorite HOB. Small room, bad sounding XLC rig. H2k at FOH. Not a fan of this place.

Tue May 17 Seattle Showbox-5/17,18-3rd- Do you know which one? One of them has a KF750 rig that sucks, and the other has a Nexo alpha rig that's ok.

Wed May 18 Portland Roseland-5/16-18-2nd, 5/19-1st- Old ass Perkins system. It still kicks, just needs a little loving to get going. Mix position sucks.



Have fun!


Evan

Re: Coming to a city near you...

"Sun May 15 San Francisco Great American Music Hall "

l'acoustics KUDO with subs for main L/R hangs, assorted l'acoustics coaxials for front fill and balcony fills, all nicely delayed to the main system.

McCauley SM95-2 wedges, drum fill is a single 18 with a JBL Array Series 4892 on top.

Yamaha M7cl at FOH, Allen & Heath GL2800M for monitors.

The "old sound guy" will be teaching in Berkeley that afternoon and early evening so he will "warn" whoever he schedules to do your show who they're dealing with :).

Sat Apr 23 Boston Showcase Live

Not actually in Boston. In reality, it's Foxboro, and the gig is next to the stadium where the Patriots play. I haven't been in there yet, but it's supposed to be a decent gig. I have no idea about the load in. The venue is only a few years old. Jeff Knight is the main audio guy there. PM5D's at either end of the snake, the rest copied from their web spec:

Main PA Hang Per Side - 6-JBL Vertec VT4888DP Mid-Size 3-wayCabs
Out Fills - 4-JBL Vertec VT4887DP Compact 3-way Cab
In Fills - 2-JBL VP7212/64DP 12 2-way Cab
Subs - 4-JBL ASB 6128V Extended Response Sub 2-18"
4-JBL ASB 6128 High Power Sub 2-18"
2- JBL VT-4881A 18"
Monitors - JBL VRX 15 2-way Stage Monitor
All Monitors powered by Crown I-Tec Digital Power Amps
JBL SRX725 Duel 15" Cabinets
Side Fills - JBL VPS7215DP 15" Powered Drum Fill Top
