I moved to Virginia from NJ in 2001 just after 9/11. I've come to understand that Virginians like to use May as their outdoor event month of choice. It can be hot but not brutal like summer gets.
May enters the scene at the end of next week.
Monday morning at 9AM is a meeting of the principals, AV integrator and myself on a bowling/retail/office/restaurant followed late afternoon by a four hour call at the local performing arts center to adjust our lighting for an upcoming show and next years Foundation series.
Tuesday will be spent dealing with Monday's meeting and pulling gear for the weekend. If the Academy tent is up on wednesday, that evening we will install the water effert under the gang plank of the passageway between the two tents for a fund raising auction. If the Realitors tent goes up first on the 3rd tee, we'll install that system.
Wednesday will be finishing which ever one we didn't do and pull more systems. Thursday should be an office day (yea right) and Friday starts the fun.
I forgot to mention, sometime during the week we need to permanently install a monitor system for the choir loft at a local church.
We have rehearsals for a Dance Schools Reciteal Friday afternoon into late evening.
Saturday starts (hopefully) loading in a sound system for 200 in a private country club. After dinner the Reedville Socitiy will present a skit requiring 3 - lavalier mics and 2 - handheld, all wireless. The rest of the day will be monitoring the two tent venues followed by loading out the Reedville system late in the evening.
Sunday has two recital performances and a load out.
It would be nice to have all the gear back by Monday night because the following weekend is dam near a repeat.
I hate May.

| Well, at least you can't complain that business is slow. Time to raise rates? |

| For some reason August is jammed this year. With my luck it'll be the hottest August in recent memory. |
