My biggest show of the year

[moresound]

Is quickly upon me.

Google up The Keene NH Pumpkin Festival.

70,000+ people in this small city and a fun time had by all.
We have three stages and 32 speakers throughout the footprint of the festival.
It's a three day setup and all of it comes down at the conclusion of the festivities.

That is pretty impressive.

Are you running the show or playing the show? Running a show this size has to be a huge undertaking.

Henry's doing the sound systems. It is huge - if you like pumpkins.

Nope. I own guns and know how to show them to rowdy college student.

So yeah this years festival ended in a riot.

Hey we need a gun toting smiley!

In fact ... it felt like a Pie Army festival.

It was my son Kyle's first riot. Age 18.
We just watched from afar.

Why did you wait so long to take him to his first riot? What a deprived kid.

 

[witzendoz]

So hopefully the PA systems were also afar.

Alan.

I had to finish automatic weapon classes with him first.

So hopefully the PA systems were also afar.

Alan.

The stages were about five blocks away from the rioting. The footprint PA was about a block away.

Nope. In fact. I think I may have gain one.

Good to hear from you Henry! Cleaning all the pumpkin guts from your equipment must have taken a while!

Your adventures make my 50 person male acapella choir gig sound lame by comparison. The closest thing to a riot there was when a pretty girl joined them for one song!

I have shows like that coming up in December. And yes. That is very funny when you see 50 guys all falling over themselves trying to make a good impression.

Ever resourceful, Henry made a large pumpkin pie in a 15 inch sub.

That can kill the band.
