...so I don't have to go to the bathroom to set myself up.
I'll be using 2 pairs of mics + 2 b boxes + 1 recorder. So my rig is minimalist.
No m€ta1 d€t€ct0rs. P0$$ible patd0vvn.
Please share via PMs only. Thanks.

Just have your friend go in first and then text you and tell you if there's a pat down or not

if it is a big venue with multiple entrances. look for the entrance where they are not checking well.

should be easy enough to rig up in your seat or wherever. Sitting in the corner at a bar works to. The recorder and pre can be set to go. Just put mics in a hat, plug in mic cables and you are done.

I would think it would be MORE suspicious to go with everything all plugged in than to walk in with some mics that look like headphones, a recorder that looks like a point-and-shoot or a phone and a battbox that looks like nothing. Patdowns these days tend to be looking for weapons, not recorders. Find a spot or go to your seat and plug in. No one cares.

Depends on venue. Madison Square Garden and Beacon it can be a bust. We had a close call at MSG.

I can see that at MSG, I'm small town taping in Tucson, not enough staff to troll for tapers in the loo.
