So i kinda fucked up and bought field without realizing it doesn't come with seat access anymore (haven't been here since ROTR), I'm hoping field is still a pretty decent view, but which one do you prefer?
Completely down on luck right now, need $350 ASAP, I was expecting to get paid today but i never did. I can repay on 8/28 at the latest. Gotta pay important bills immediately, thank you in advance!!
Had a couple gigs last week, on of them ran through Wednesday (8/12). Payday is biweekly so yesterday (8/14) would have been one and i was heavily relying on it, but never got it. To any AV freelancer or boss out there, do you think this wasn't a missed payday but instead the client just hasn't had time to pay the boss yet?

Overall, MGK Weekend was a blast. The venue was actually pretty damn good whether people want to admit it or not, and $40 to see Kells and Wiz in 2026 is still a steal compared to normal shows. However, aside from the obvious piss poor planning (security, lines, water, way too much of an oversell, etc) there's just a couple things I'd change:
Hire some local artists to get main stage going a bit earlier. There's a great music scene here and i got bored to death waiting for music to start.
FAMILIES--Please do NOT fucking camp near the stage then complain when people are dancing/raging or stepping on your precious little blanket. If you wanna do that, go to the back and let us have fun.
I don't know if this is true or not, but apparently the reason they started later because of a wedding-so if you're the bride or groom from that night, FUCK YOU!
Still had a great time during the show and the skateboard competition though!
Out of curiosity, what's your maximum commute for work if you have to drive yourself and have to go back later that night?
I swear fate wanted me to have some time with Evanescence! First time seeing them in nine years, and Better Without You was definitely the highlight of the night.
I wasn't sure if I was going to go because Inkcarceration and MCR aren't super cheap, but looked on StubHub and got a VIP Box for $50 about half hour before the show started. Didn't make it in time for Spiribox's entire set, but if it hadn't been for the 20 minute walk I could have seen more.
SIDE NOTE: Blossom still sucks but out of the four times i have now gone, i have to say getting on the highway in less than an hour (this includes a gas station stop) was pretty damn nice! All in all, totally worth it for the most badass girl out there!
I don't think any openers were announced for this tour, and it just happens to have a band called Statica on the lineup and according to A7X's website, this is a debut LP
From opening for Underoath and Spiritbox to headlining festivals just four years later is fucking insane for a rock band in this generation
It didn't truly hit me I was at Ink until Seek Shelter replaced Hatebreed and Machine Head
Had a blast doing Ink for my first time ever but the hour drive for four days wasn't my favorite so I'm looking at booking now and wonder what the average price is?
Saw a Red Roof Inn for $350 a night. It's a book now pay later thing, so i haven't spent anything but locked it in just in case.
Think there will be anything cheaper?
Hi all, if anyone is going to the show with Lorna Shore and FFAK, would you be willing to get me a Decades tour shirt? I wanted one at Inkcarceration but they only sold the one with album tracks on the back
Hoping this works out lol, still choosing between Heavy//Hitter and Thousand Below, for the slight chance TB gets Noah Sebastian up there
Before i get started, yes, I am a fan of some of the shows of bands I've been able to work. Believe it or not, I can still have fun at a show and not think about "work" lol
That being said, I don't know if i should work Foo Fighters or just go to see them since I haven't before.
So for anyone who has seen them, work or buy a ticket for a first Foo show?
OFFICIALLY AT THE ONE WEEK MARK AND I PERSONALLY CANNOT FUCKING WAIT!
What bands that you have NOT seen are you looking forward to the most?
Jinjer, Limp Bizkit, and Hatebreed for me!
For anyone who is working the R&B Tour, rest up lol
About 40 hours in three days for production load in and strike, plus another 5 from last week doing some steel. I could have helped the rest of the steel strike but I was running low after being up for 24+ hours. Easily one of the biggest shows I've ever helped out on
Just recently worked a show on the R&B Tour. They had (EDIT: according to a comment, it's 85 trucks), built the production (video, lighting, audio, and about 90% of the stage) the day before the show. They finished everything up (VIP on sides of the stage and some more lighting) the morning of and we were completely done just before doors opened.
Just a little under 40 hours for me in three days. I spent 30 hours straight from show day to load out. A lot of us went 24+ hours without any sleep. This show is no fucking joke, y'all lol. Please be grateful for that crew!
Hopefully I'll actually be able to catch a Brown and/or Usher show sometime soon since the only downside of our job is being told to leave until show ends.
Hey y'all, as the title says, I'm looking for jobs that are actually flexible with scheduling (we have a lot of fast food, grocery stores, hotels, etc.)
I'm not completely jobless, I do freelancing in A/V, but you can never depend on a full year of work with it, but at times can get super busy.
Obviously it comes down to specific management, but in your experience, what jobs have been the most flexible? I.E. Meijer, Walmart, Burger King, etc.
Thank you in advance!
