The Night of Nights
It Begins: 8:00pm - Mt. Dew I
Been going for 3 hours already and it's off to a very rough start, nothing properly planned and quickly going downhill. Looking forward to the rest of the night/morning ...Cadburry Creme Eggs are delectable...
Crapola: 9:10pm - Mt. Dew II
Still on the first show, going OK other than all the wanna be rockstars who also think they're sound guys. Don't get me wrong, I know they know what they're talking about but so do I, SO SHUT IT! No, I'm really OK though...sometimes the smartest person is the first one to admit he has no idea what he's doing...
And on and on and on...: 12:19 - Mt. Dew III
Concert is over and I just finished another 2 set-ups. Free pizza in 1/2 hr. Can't wait, the hunger consumes me...I find small, unneccesary sound systems to be voluptuous...
Free Pizza and Screaming Children: 1:42 - Mt. Dew IV
The sheer volume of the little children is nearly unbearable, at least 350 in one gym! Who's wretched idea was this? Besides that, I have acquired my box of free pizza and am currently enjoying my fourth Mt. Dew...roman numerals have absolutely no advantages over our current numbering system and I find them only moderately useful due to the fact that they are rather attractive...
Dramatic Increase in Fluid Intake: 2:55 - Mt. Dew VII
The children...the children...they seem...could it be true!? They seem to be growing weary. Their volume has decreased 10 fold. Only 4 more hours to go and if you're counting with me I only have 5 Dews left. Strange people have infiltrated the room adjacent to mine, they have set up camp and even came up and shut my door...I have acquired Oreos and I find that they are very good, especially since I stole them...shhhh...
Going Numb & Losing All Sense of Reality: 4:14 - Mt. Dew IX
My legs are kind of numb. Not that it's a bad thing...at times it feels like I'm floating...surrounded by little tiny seahorses. They have upped the ante and given us around 600 teens in this gym, but they are keeping them a bit quieter ao that's a plus...plastic tastes pretty good, along with nylon polymer, and little children...
Virus Scan Anomaly: 5:06 - Mt. Dew XI
Okay, so my virus scan just came on and it reminded me that I had set it for a time I though I'd never be up...and I am. Trippy. I've been trying to slow my Dew usage saving one for the cleanup stage. Till then it's kinda like that period right before you take your next scheduled pain killer (like when you get your wisdom teeth removed...I know I have a bad singing voice and all but It's really bad after 11 Mt. Dews and a total of maybe 10 hours of sleep in the last three days, not that I want you to feel sorry for me, just thought you'd like to know...
It IS Finished: 7:00 - Mt. Dew XII
Officially off the clock at 6:15am and since I did start at 5:00pm that makes it a 13.25hr work day. My computer even warned me that it was an unusaully long "pay period." All the children are leaving and I'm finally here in my room. I will be at media team in the morning even though I'm pretty sure I have a lethal dose of caffene in my body by now. I think that if I do go to sleep I may end up in a coma...have you been counted...i don't know...well have you been through here yet?...no...ok......I don't know what to think or feel but I have achived a higher state of mind where I can feel all the textures that I want and play on my pizza-box laptop, it truly is...a delight...

First and foremost -- The secret of all sound crew: You are always right, but you are never allowed to say it, cause you'll step on the egos of those who will attempt their very best to rock the stage. On the other hand, you don't have to say it, because in the end, you have a temporary 'god-like' power over how those who entrust themselves to the almighty PA system. It's truly a perfect example of why humans are not God, because absolute power corrupts absolutely.
