Mockfest 2013, Manchester.

FoH-Sound Engineer Ben Hammond gives info on working festivals around the world. 

A few photo’s from the Alice Cooper set at Bloodstock Open Air Festival in August! Personally thought it was an amazing show, showmanship was spot on, sound was decent (was in a good spot though- dead centre, Impressive for a festival!) and I was massively impressed with the lighting rig used, impressively designed was a really good lighting show on its own, and Alice was on top form. Wonder who the lampy was for main stage, anyway the Lighting Director, all the engineers and Riggers need a right pat on the back! 

Right, as of yet I have a full weekend off, that’s a whole entire Friday, Saturday and Sunday!… and just so happens that Bloodstock is this weekend also :) Seeing as Download festival was pretty much rained out, and Sonisphere was cancelled and i didn’t think i’d be able to make Bloodstock due to work… seems to be coming together quite nicely.

Check it! Last Saturday was the Real XS day festival in Manchester. This is the preparation vid, us getting everything ready. Me and Dom on Second stage foh. Check out the sand we had to cart all the gear over though! And kids kept digging up our multi cables! Wasn’t even funny! :) Enjoyable day though, glad I got to work it.

Working second Foh for 2nd stage for Real XS Mockfest

Personally gutted, was hoping to work 4th stage at Soni this year and wanted to catch Faith No More, will have to keep my eye open to see if they tour :(
