Noob question about getting in
« on: March 30, 2018, 06:52:50 AM »
What do you do when you get to the concert and there are 10 cops each holding a metal detector? I turn around and take the mix pre and the high and gear back to the car and use the cell phone. how do you guys get into these places?

I usually climb up to the roof then sneak in through a ventilation duct, Mission Impossible style.

This^^.

If the cop begins to ask a question hold your index finger to your lips to shhh him, give him a sexy wink, blow him a kiss and walk right past him.  Mind blown.  :zombie03:  Maybe mumble something about gerbils or sheep as you pass.  Most important part it not to break eye contact.

hmmmmm Okie, post 45 more times and we can PM you with super private information most of us would never divulge to our mothers.    >:D   (seriously keep posting, it'll happen for you)

OK, how about past perspective. In Summer 1984 the Grateful Dead started clamping down on getting gear through the gates, however once through they weren't busting us. (stupid, read the roadies' interviews today, they didn't truly care they just busted our balls for fun!)
Soooooo. For the Red Rocks run that summer, we placed two D5's (cassette decks for you young uns) into multiple plastic baggies and put them in the bottom of a medium cooler covered with 5 lb bag of ice, food and canned drinks. (Red Rocks allowed the coolers AND alcohol in cans/wineskins etc back then) The guys wore mic cables as belts with microphones in pockets and two of our girls walked in with mic stands under their dresses. Despite all their searching, we had two rigs in and wound up DFC directly behind the SBD in the Sweet spot.
Moral: where there is a will, there is a way!

I may be mistaken but I think we can PM him, he just can't PM back until reaching the post minimum, no?

Those were the days.  My roommate's girl friend used to strap a PCM F-1/SL2000 and nicad batteries under her skirt and waddle in.  She was a BIG girl. 

Best was the Dead at Oakland Auditorium (before it was Kaiser). Someone would go in, go to the bathroom on the 2nd floor, open the window and we would toss the backpack up with the gear.

Loaded with info.  Pick it apart and you're in.

As for bringing in a Mixpre-seems I've seen a few recordings with DPA4028>Mixpre3 and I'm certain some of those bands don't allow taping.
A lot of people run a race to see who is the fastest. I run to see who has the most guts, who can punish himself into exhausting pace, and then at the end, punish himself even more.
