Four days of nothing but fun! I ran Graphics/Video for this thing. Setup on Tuesday, 100+ presentations Wednesday-Saturday. Great group of people though! I really enjoy this group whenever they come to Maui…
Here’s me and Mike screwing around – he was posing, not actually napping (but it would’ve been great if he was – I would’ve never let him forget it)…

This happened lastnight. I ran spot for the show. I barely made it cause I’m on another show at the Grand Wailea right now and only had an hour (in traffic) to get there…
Haven’t slept in a few days right now – had real early calls the last few days (05:00-05:30). Yesterday I was at the Grand at 05:30 to 18:00 (running graphics/video for AAST/JAAM), made it to the MACC for this show (Mick’s show) at 19:00, got out of there at 01:15 this morning (after turning the theater around for tonight’s show), had to be back here (at the Grand) this morning at 05:30, will be here till around 14:00, have to be at the MACC to run preshow-outside sound by 15:30, have to run spot for the inside show (19:00-11:00), after the show tonight we have to turn the theater around for tomorrow’s show (probably get out of there around 01:00-02:00 Sunday/tomorrow morning), and tomorrow at 12:00 I have to run video for another show (can’t talk about this one)…
As a freelancer you can’t say no to any show – you just don’t know when the next one will be…
But this was a great show (really lifted me up from being stuck in meetings all week – little change of pace) – here’s a few pics from my iPhone. The pics suck, but I don’t care – the solo pic of Mick is almost ok…?

I got to run spot on this one. Well, that’s not really the whole of it – that was my show position for the show (what I got paid to do), but actually I ran the main curtain and corrected an issue with the projector during the first half of the show; for the second half, I ran spot and hauled it down to stage right on the last few numbers to play stage manager for a few minutes…
We finished striking it about 22:30 lastnight…
I took about 100 shots with my iPhone just to get these 6. They still suck, but they at least show the nice view of shows I get from the spot booth. These shots were actually taken during Friday morning’s kids show…

Almost forgot to tell you, my passport is here! So let the bidding begin!
Just kid’n ya, give me a call if you need me on the road…
Only took a few weeks! I didn’t put a rush in, it just got here that fast…

Most American’s who would watch something like this can’t comprehend – they can’t even fathom what the rest of the world is like…
