Re: Gotta have that passion...
Reminds me of the guy that was LD for 311... he'd start fully clothed, getting more and more into the show. By the end of their set he was almost naked.

"We'd like you to meet 'Steve', our LD. He's a bit...overzealous, but he means well."
We had an overzealous flute player at my university. She'd go to town on that thing like it was a hot dog in an eating contest.
Yeah, he'd go over REAL WELL with the client.

I was thinking he would work well for Bluegrass also.

Re: Gotta have that passion...
I've seen this before, and I always thought it was brilliant. A lighting guy who is completly involved in what he is doing and feeling every moment off it!!!!! I actually think there is a little in how this guy is that we could all learn from. I dont neccesarily mean the dancing part but definatly his attitude to what he is doing!!!
Cheers Dave
P.S. I do assume there are some tongue in cheek comments here but i think this is a brilliant attitude to take to work!!!!

Re: Gotta have that passion...
I was once told by a boss at work that I came across as too much of a newbie because I enjoyed my job too much and that was why I wasn't taken seriously. Just so happens Im enthusiastic about by job because I do it for love!
turns out he was a depressive git and didn't like to see anyone else doing well (or better than him).

Re: Gotta have that passion...
Whenever I'm flattered by a new-to-me band complimenting me for my patience with the band and my persistence for getting the most out of their performance I tell them "Thank you, but it's quite simple - I'm doing what I have a passion for - if I didn't I'd quit".
The video was posted for fun because it was so extreme, no real comment intended.

Re: Gotta have that passion...
I fail to see what is so extreme. I understand that people work in different ways but to lable this as extreme seems silly to me.

Re: Gotta have that passion...
extreme - definition of extreme by the Free Online Dictionary, Thesaurus and Encyclopedia.
Look at number 3 in the link, that's how I would categorize the "mixing with no shirt while jumping up and down, headbanging"-style which is a fair bit beyond the norm of how most people I work with do their thing.
Yeah, I guess we just work in different ways.

If we use the definition of normal, Normal - definition of Normal by the Free Online Dictionary, Thesaurus and Encyclopedia. Going by the first adjective definition, normal is quite arbitrary and is not globally defined. For the guy in question, his behaviour may very well be normal, it all depends on the set used to define what normal is.

Re: Gotta have that passion...
For that guy in that setting with that music and those people, I think it was considered "normal" or at least acceptable. Now, if he were running lights for a Family Day orchestral performance at an amphitheater in the park, I would think it was not "normal" and some might even think the behavior was unacceptable.
Normal is what a particular group of people perceives as not out-of-the-ordinary and it changes based on context and setting.
