[QUOTE="Kip Conner, post: 59545, member: 445"] Re: Stage Manager Gig I had one of my favorite stage managers on call last night for a festival I was mixing monitors for last night. Luckily the headliner was the festival promoter and they kept to the schedule. So the stage manager was able to focus on being an assistant to all of the guest artists that were not typically a part of this group. She did a great job letting everyone know who she was and that if they needed any thing to see her. She was on the stage more than a stage manager should be- but she was asked to bring instruments by the guests since they didn't have techs to help them. The only time she bothered me was when she was asked to perform a technical task and she needed me to do a once over to make sure the cables were patched correctly. I use the word bother loosely because she knew when I was pushing buttons or the cue wedge was on that I needed a minute to focus on something that was happening with the mixes. And then it was usually to ask if I needed anything. It was a great example of knowing the big picture, letting us all do our jobs and laying down when there was a gap in the tracks.
