[QUOTE="Steve Hurt, post: 99521, member: 311"] Re: Sound Provider Refusing Band Engineer? Alan, At this point, I don't know if they have hired in a rig for this gig. It's completely possible the venue wasn't aware a band had been hired until I showed up. Right now, I do not know what to expect. My rig is in the trailer, so I'll take it. If I don't unload it, that's fine. If the band doesn't play, it won't be because I showed up unprepared. ___________________________________________________ To anyone: I did not mean to turn this thread into an anti union/pro union discussion.

This is not the first time this band was not allowed to use it's sound guy. Other reasons have been used in the past, not union I used this most recent situation as an example to refute: "this doesn't happen outside JV", because it's not a JV room, not because it's a union room.
