We ended up using the e609 since we had 2 on stage all mounted on short tripods and I was distracted at the mix position so my guy just did what he thought best give the choices and time available. We got hit by a thunderstorm at around 2pm so tarped the world. Since it looked like it would be a while they decided to move the rest of the day indoors and take a 1hr schedule delay.
