SPOT
Well SPOT was pretty interesting. I have to say I enjoyed it except the sound was really really bad. (I know I am picky, but honestly everyone noticed....probably cause you couldn't here anyone speaking or singing!)
So SPOT weekend is the biggest weekend on campus for techies. It was super chill tho. Ya know all the goodness of carrying truss pieces in the poring rain from the CC to the Chapel, worrying about falling off the balcony, trying to explain to a band why you need them to shut up for 5 minutes, wondering if you were going to get the extension cord ends in time to hook up the lighting, wondering if Derek was ever going to come or if Greg Bish would ever shut-up, and the show not following the script. Why in the world do we have scripts at Houghton. Every-time i have been given a script at Houghton things would have ran smoother w/o one.
Overall for me and my friends end show went well. For the sound people not so well. There we some good quotes over the night.
(QUOTE OF THE NIGHT) "Well I don't have the strength but I can screw well." -trying to set up the 100lb truss stands
"Wow we have gone to a whole new level in our relationship. We went from sexual innuendoes to just out right sexual jokes"-sometime after the above comment (which was completely innocent at the time I was screwing in a screw)
"I'm glad your small-it would have taken Derek and me 20 minutes to move everything out of the way to get those out." -after I crawled in behind the mother-ship to get the v's"
"I'm small and I can screw" -Yes, I'm a good techie.
"What time does this actually start?"--well informed techies
"Well 1-5 either means we are going to be done at 4 or we are going to be done at 7" -yup we only had an hour for dinner that meant 1pm to 1 am." --knowledgeable techies
"Lets go get some toastitoes" - 5 min before doors all the lighting people drove down to the gas station to get some food
"Tip the tech guys...$5 per person is good"-On screen announcement.
"Go home, I mean it, If you stay you have to clean, please put the monitors in the closet they are heavy, please."-On Screen Announcement
Nice--I just now realized I have sound check in 10 minutes and I am still in PJ's.
I love how Houghton changed our worship time around the super bowl. What a showing of Christian excellence.
