Feel free to add to....
  • You know, and can identify each DMX cable, and have names for them in your head
  • You refer to yourself as a lampy, noise boy, or Vidiot
  • You get a Bruce Name
  • You head into town, and ?pop in? to the union just to check what is happening in Venue 1
  • You are known by the door staff, and can get in to events without a band or ents pass
  • You watch Glastonbury and pay more attention to the lights and equipment than you do to the act.
  • You fail a module
  • You fail your degree
  • You get a brown leather hat
  • You start wearing clothing given to you by companies
  • You start coiling cables at home/without thinking about it
  • You dream about ?the perfect bop?
  • You spend your free time writing on this list
  • You can?t enjoy the bop as a punter
  • You routinely try and fix things with gaffa

You had a dream last night about being back in St Andrews and teching a bop several months after you left. Several of you were in it, strangely enough.

In other news, expect a visit from me perhaps in early February, hopefully. Maybe around Rag Week. (When is it this year?)

....you have a behringer box just for standing real kit on.
....Any rig that leaves unused equipment seems like underachieving.
....I guess I'll just have to /make/ a patchbay then.
....DJ rig on a cherrypicker? Sure, just let me fish out my old planning folder.
....4 amps, 6 cabs, driverack 260....for the telly.
