Lighting fun

It is always fascinating when you can experiment with light. Tonight I had a chance to busk an a cappella show on an ETC Ion XE (a top of the line Theatrical Lighting Board). Busking is designing ”on the fly”, “seat of your pants” or in many cases sheer guesswork.

I have a fairly large library of tunes that I am familiar with, but it is the unknowns that throw you. Tonight I was a little too eager to pull out some of the bells and whistles that are available with the new system. Lent to some rather awkward transitioning in my mind.

Overall, good show.
