Title: stealthing, whats your technique?
Post by: jagraham on January 13, 2008, 05:42:33 PM
have taped a few shows with my stand but have yet to stealth anything.  some venues you could walk in waving it in securitys face and not have a problem, but some you may have to pass a metal detector.  im assuming a good place for the equipment is onyour back or upper belly, where they wouldnt search.  any popular techniques here?

You may find that this is not a popular topic of public discussion with some of the members here... :)

Its cool to ask such things, but you'll probably be better off asking for replies via PM, then all our ninja-style methods aren't out and about for THE MAN to read.

I use my Cloak of Invisibility, just like the one Harry Potter uses.  Don't even have to pay for tickets to get into shows using same method.

Awesome!  Not having to buy tickets probably frees up a lot of cash for new gear...

You might want to try another board with that question.  I think this is the wrong board to be asking that on.

with an invisibility cloak, you wouldn't even need to buy the gear! just walk into a store and take it.  ;D

Thanks to the Hoff's powers of persuasion, anything is possible.

Using his ultimate jedi stealthing skills, the Hoff has managed to crotch himself.

I'm actually rethinking some of my stealth entry methods, too.  If anyone is willing to PM me their strategy, with any suggestions for my current rig (see sig), I'll be happy to share a +t for their time and maybe even lift the veil on how I currently do things.

I found that is pretty amazing to walk in with a mic stand and "act like crew".......no one says anything.
Got me backstage at lagerado two years in a row now.....

"act like crew"...

What exactly does this entail?

Working long hours rewarded with cheap warm beer, leftover bologna & crackers, & the band's groupie rejects.
