>1) Could all of the performers post a specific list of all the gear >they're planning on using? I plan on bringing various percussion instruments, two microphones, an EDP, and a 1402 mixer. With this setup, I can do all my soundchecking offstage with headphones, and the rest of the souncheck as I start my first song. >3) How many performers are self-contained (i.e. have their own >amps/cabinets, and are able to do their thing independently of a PA) and I can bring a mackie powered speaker and be completely self contained without any trouble. It seems just as easy though to send a single 1/4" cord to the main sound system though. I monitor from headphones anyway. On the subject of performing time slots: I will happily cut my show short if need be. I would like to throw my ideas into the mix via performing (especially if I'm driving a few hours to do so), but this is not the focus of my attendance there. I really want to spend the time learning about how everyone else does their thing - and stealing their precious ideas... On the subject of a 10 hour show: I dig it. I think 10 minutes quiet time between sets will be welcome time to let our ears reset (kind of like sorbet between meal courses) I can listen all day and night with these little rests to relax and discuss the last show with (new) friends.
