Technical Info

What are your basic technical requirements?

I am fully self contained with my own Bose PA and lights. I would just kindly ask for one plug socket next to the performance area, a minimum space of 2m x 2m and a parking space near to the entrance so I can load in my gear easily if possible. My PA is 2 metres in height so I would need to make sure it fits comfortably underneath the roof/gazebo (if outside)

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

It takes me around 30 minutes to set up and soundcheck. I will always arrive at least 45 minutes before the performance and around 20 minutes for care homes.
