  2. Hi,

    Yay! Looks like a great time! Fun stuff!

    I'm kind of digging the PVC pipe you use with your lighting on top of the PA. Is it LED? Great utilization of resources and space. Happy New Year!

    Thank you for your indulgence,

    BassCliff

    LOL - I just noticed that .. .good catch!
    I would imagine that GLUED 1.5-inch schedule-40 PVC would be every bit as strong as the aluminum equivalent for lighting purposes.. followed up with a light sanding and matte black spray paint, and none would be any wiser :)

    The PVC was our sound guy's idea - however the fact it's white irks Elise to no end. She said she's gonna buy him a can of black spray paint :laugh:

    I'd be on her side there... the matte black doesn't draw attention to it and makes it look more professional... LOL

    I didn't even notice Elise was walking around with her new GoPro during "Bille Jean" :D

    Perry's Place - 9652 Mockingbird Dr, Omaha. Just south of 96th & L. They don't have bands every weekend, mostly special occasions.

    Thanks. I've never been there. Looks like the little place down by the river. Never can remember the name. Saw Those Darlins there, and a couple of other shows. Has to be a good band to drive up from Lincoln.
