The super-long, all-emcompassing super post!

Alrighty...finishing up where I left off:

After Adelaide finished, I came back home and went on:

RSL TOURS

First, we started off with Peter Byrne in 'Forever Diamond'...a Neil Diamond tribute.

We set off in our little truck:



Going to many RSL's, setting up a small PA and lightin system and running it.

I was doing lighting on a Hog 1k:



And what happened on the first night? Not only did the dimmer Arc and catch on fire, but our trucks brakes died, and at 1am we're stuck at a truck stop:



While our fearless leader, Dylan, calls RACQ:



So, with nothing better to do, we had a decent midnight snack:

Wait...what? A Buttery Carwash? sounds dangerous.

Anyway, on to the next gig.

Sydney Royal Easter Show.

I came straight off that tour onto another one with Dragon...and straight off that to tour back to Sydney with Raw Metal.

It was an odd venue, with only about 8 metres depth in the venue. The system was a Funktion 1 with a venice out front.



Next it was off to perth, for a few corporate gigs for IBM (cue mixing desk wankery):





at the Burswood casino:



and we stayed in really nice rooms in 'the duxton' hotel:



After Perth was finished with, I came straight back off the plane to a tour with 'Creedence Clearwater Recycled'...no pictures, but it was still nice. After that tour finished, I flew down to Melbourne for a gig for ChemMart, with Raw Metal. We stayed at the Crown Casino:



and the view from our room:



And on the plane home, I took a shot of my place!



Now I'm home, and not working till Thursday, when I have a meeting about more Raw Metal touring, then I'm mixing monitors for Rogue Traders and Thirsty Merc at the XXXX brewery.

And finally, the men that I work with:



The very, very Tired,
