Mr.Si Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 I've asked my colleague to get some photos of the tech stuff while he's there, so if he does, I'll post links to them on my photobucket album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbuckley Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 1 x 100w lightbulb. I've got one of those going out this week. Its not often my amateur level kit going out on hire matches the big boys :unsure: (Actually, its a 200W blub, but who is going to quibble over that level of detail) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobbsy Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 So...Coldplay is now a light show only? (Since there's no sound equipment or crew listed!) :unsure: Bob (Actually, having heard them do live sets on telly and fail rather miserably to make their vocals sound like the processed studio sound, maybe a light show is a better idea! I'll duck and run for cover now!) B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zonino Posted June 15, 2006 Author Share Posted June 15, 2006 thanks for the info Nick :) very enjoyable weekend, although I've knadgered my ankle... think an old injury has come to light! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrispuxley Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 So...Coldplay is now a light show only? (Since there's no sound equipment or crew listed!) Well - I watched some of the TV coverage. FOH was d&b audiotechnik J series and J subs. Monitoring was either d&b M2's or M4's. Drum fill looked like C7 and C7 sub. Sure it sounded considerably better live than the TV mixes!
