Title: Hiding Equipment in your Shoes?
Post by: Mr. Bull on November 22, 2006, 06:40:29 PM
Does anyone have expirience with hiding equipment in shoes?  This would be just to sneak it in.  I was thinking about going to payless and getting some shoes that have thicker souls and carve out the bottom so that My Micortrack will fit in.  Does anyone see any problems with this?

That is very Maxwell smart of you. But can you convert the other shoe into a cell phone? Thats the real question. :-X

That is still considered to be one of the best reel to reel recorders ever made. So why not?

Just because with heightened venue security, I can't believe he can still get it in

I think the most recent show that he seeded was from 2000. 

When I first saw what he was using I thought he had an inside connection.  I guess it is possible to slip throught the cracks in security.  The music he was taping is not typically known to have tight security and the further back in time you go it gets more lax.

That being said, this dude is still a jedi master.

considering that the "security" is making all of like $5 an hour I am sure a few $20's will always help grease the squeaky wheel

I know.  I was shocked when I saw that one!  Probably the security guys were too young to know what the hell the thing was. ;D

You could probably stealth a Nagra in your shoes if you got set of these babies!!!
