Coachella Set Up 2007 |
Read about it here in 3rd Octave Magazine
Once again Rat Sound was proud to do sound for one of the biggest festivals in the US.
5 stages, over 100 bands (including Rage Against the Machine, Red Hot Chili
Peppers,
and more) and over 160,000 attendees.
This year, l'Acoustics was the choice of speaker for 4 of the 5 stages, with Rat trap 5's being used for the Smaller Gobi Tent.
Rat had 32 of it's crew out manning the 5 stages and here of some pictures of the event. More to come!
The Peppers, who Dave Rat has been touring with for the past year and a half, headlined the second evening and used their dual hung PA at Coachella for their set. There were some hurdles both financial and logistical but it seemed to be a phenominal success!
For Jon, who put together all the logistics for the 5 stages, his primary
focus from a sound company is to make sure everyone has all their channels!
Strong guys were put on every stage to make sure every engineer and band
had all their channels in the right place as expected!!
