We have a big need for lighting in case anyone has any extra cans or ropes or spots or whatever.

thanks so much

jay you may touch base with Bob Carlton. we will be using his sound system and from what he's told me it will handle anything we can put it through. you can email him here - austincatalyst@austin.rr.com. we will need a small setup for the dinner music, but i'ma thinking that Bob can handle several different sets at once. dunno for sure.

the generator is not making the trip so hopefully that doesn't change anyone's plans. :)

rain, rain go away!

2003-03-25T09:52:00.000-08:00

I was just wondering about getting a good quality sound system some beats I'm going to be
laying down are pretty harsh, so if it could handle a strong base and such that would be wonderful.
I was told if I mention something we could get a really decent sound system there, but at the fear of imposing
I am avoiding asking for a better sound system, so please note the implications and subtle hints.
peace,
jay

Steve Taylor, who was trying to fly to USA for the conference this week, regrets that he cannot come. But he has posted last weekends OUTDOOR PEACE SERVICE from his church in New Zealand. That "Peace On Earth" song from U2 has also been rattling and humming in my mind this week. TAke a look at what they did last week - I would be curious to know how you feel about doing something that speaks deeply into the war situation on friday. not talking about protest. talking about catching and expressing our deepest fears and prayers and offering them to God, hearing from God, and responding.

2003-03-24T11:13:00.000-08:00

main power to the tent area is taken care of and we will have some extension cords and power strips available. if anyone has extra extension cords that they can bring that would help out a lot.

2003-03-23T20:28:00.000-08:00

I was told to finish letting you guys through here know what I need for friday night. Umm, I need three outlets (3 hole) to hook up my turntables and mixer, and might need 3 extension cords if I'm not really close to the outlets because my cords from my turntables are really short. And I'll repost about the table I need so its all in one place:
I need a table 2 and 1/2 feet to 4 feet high (preferably 3 ft high, but I can manage within these measurements), and at least 3ft. long and 2 ft. wide. I also need an RCA out cable to a whatever input the sound system is, Bryan Seay said he could help with any questions you guys had about this, unfortunately my knowledge does not extend to pro audio stuff. I'm sorry, I feel like I'm barking out orders or something, I really appreciate all your guys help, and really look forward to next weekend.
peace out,
jay

Hiyas. This is Mark/Marr. I live here in Austin. If you need audio-related supplies still (power strips, cables, etc.) let me know and I will see what I can pull together. I do have a pair of 2-way 15" 150Wish speakers that are rugged and mobile if there's a need for them. They're not dancefloor-blasting powerful (only do highs and "mid-bass"), but good for monitoring or public address. (I don't have an amp for them.)

Re those dj cd-players, it'll probably be more than $25 since I got a quote on the wrong setup. Tuesday will still be the day to reserve them and I'll go take care of that then after I double-check with Tim on the correct rig.

ttyl,Mark

'rock and roll rentals'
they have a decent setup (2x cd decks + mixer)

I went by the place today and talked to the d00d. He said we can pick it
up next Tuesday and they'll charge us the weekend rate ($25).

andrew thanks for the specifics on what you are bringing and what you are needing and everyone else please do the same. the area where this event will take place is a large open caleche field that will be approximately 150 to 300 feet away from electrical services. i will be bringing two 100' 10 GA contruction grade extension cords to get power to where you will need it. any requirements even down to how many amps your equipment may pull will be helpful, this will also aid those who are setting up the venue next week.

i will also most likely be bringing a small generator capabale of running some basic spots. the idea is to bounce the lights off the water and create that dancing water effect on the trees around the perimiter of the tank. i have not confirmed that the generator will work, but if it does i'll bring it. this could also be used elsewhere if we had a better use for it.

2003-03-18T09:45:00.000-08:00

Everyone or Anyone, I need a table to put my gear on, 2 and 1/2 feet to 4 feet high (preferably 3 ft high, but I can manage within these measurements), and at least 3ft. long and 2 ft. wide. I'll talk to Bryan and see what I can come up with, but if anyone has a table with these measurements please let me know, because its usually difficult to find something tall enough. 281 - 799 -7956
thanks ;)

Hi everyone. I am Andrew (Tallskinnykiwi) and I feel compelled to throw up some images on a piece of wall or ceiling or perhaps someone's bare stomach. I will bring my projector, ibook computer, midiman synth (for multimedia) and a whole bunch on movies and images to sample from.
I would like: a 110 volt power strip, with a few plug holes for my gear and
some guidance on what kind of images - ie, prophetic colors or themes.
Regarding Rock and Roll Rentals, I have used them before to rent bubble machines ($20), smog machines, and other equipment. I recommend them.
Looking forward to it. Andrew Jones

2003-03-15T13:17:00.000-08:00

hey tim, whats Marr's email and I will send him an invite?
Would you need anything else besides the 2 decks and mixer? Let me know if Marr will rent it and I will pick up the cost for those. Maybe Jay (here in Austin)would use them too perhaps?

records and asked them, they suggested 'rock and roll rentals', called them
and they have a decent setup (2x cd decks + mixer) for $65 over the weekend
rate (i believe they are closed sundays, woohoo for TX ;) hehe)

so, jessica, if you can add that info to the collective pool? i would
certainly be willing to contribute a chunk of change to that price, i don't
think i would be able to rent them myself, as i am not a resident, but maybe
you could marr??

anyways.. just keeping y'all posted.

2003-03-15T01:15:00.000-08:00

hi jessica, everyone. my name is tim, just saying hello and that i can contribute some ambient music if desired, i have alot of very calm, peaceful stuff, some rythmic, some not. i am blessed simply to come and meet old friends and make new ones, Lord-willing, but if i can contribute musically in any way, i am more than happy to serve.

just adding my voice

Christ-love.

Friday Night:
We will be on a Texas Ranch under a big white revival tent. There is a big man made fish pond (tank) on the property and we will have a bonfire. During dinner we will have some people playing music (electric violin, cello and acoustic guitar) then as dinner draws to a close a dj is going to take it up a notch. Our hope is that there will be many layers to this portion of the event. With several djs and vjs and other mediams of art and music being expressed. The pond seems like it would be amazing to project off of and we can also use the walls of the tents to project on or through. If you want to help with this part of the event --- let us know.

2003-03-14T12:16:00.000-08:00

Hi to all! This is the wabiSABI artist’s page. We are only a few weeks away from the event and it seems like Gods stirring some stuff up... personally I'm really looking forward to see what this turns out looking like. Please let me know what I can do to help facilitate any needs. I also recommend that you check out the wabi offical site from time to time as it will be updated more often now. emergingchurchnetwork.com/wabisabi
