so I'm playing this festival and I need some help

Post by squints14 »

So I am going to be playing with another guy (Dave and Tim) style at a music festival (Kastle Creek) in extreme western upstate New York, the name of the town is sheridan, it is somewhere near Jamestown. I am wondering if anyone out in cyberspace lives near this general area and if someone would be willing to be my guitar tech for the weekend. I can't pay you anything, but you will drink for free the entire weekend. Your duties would include setting up my effects (DD-20, vibrato, distortion, volume, wah, effects modeler), mic, monitors, tuning, and fixing strings if they break, and carrying other stuff around, and doing soundcheck. I am sure excellent partying atmosphere will be provided, and were camping out with the crowd for the entire weekend so be ready for some insane partying. If anyone is interested hit me up on im, bsquints14

last time I played one of these things I ended having my pedal board stolen, I really just need someone to watch my gear in case I really get fucked up.

instead of helping out, I'll just come steal some of your gear when your wasted and sell it. It beats babysitting you for free. Pays better too.

Are you there to get fucked up or play music.

Bottom line, watch your own shit. Unless you DO want to cough up some $$$ or real benefits other than free drinks.

EDIT: Which is not to say that there probably is somebody out there who may consider helping you.
