It only takes a pin-hole to cause the problem. The tires are very thin and my first leak was caused by a rose thorn.

I played a wedding cocktail reception at this upscale Country Club in Long Island NY ... got there real early to set up, parked in the front, took my gear in the front door and placed it in the lobby ... there was NOBODY in the place but the manager went ballistic when she saw I went through the front door ! ... told me in no uncertain terms that I'd better make sure I went out through the back ... Having played in a 'wedding band' most of my career I would say I've entered through the kitchen on about 95% of my gigs ... _________________________ t.

My wife is a big Johnny Mathis fan. We've been to see him many times all over the country. We saw him a few years ago here in Baltimore at our Meyerhoff Symphany Hall. After the show we went around to the back and waited for his car to come out. What I saw blew me away. When the big door opened, here was Johnny and his driver walking around the dumpster to get into his car. I just said to myself wow, it doesn't matter what level you are at, you still have to walk around a trash heap to get in and out of the venue.

Dnj Senior Member Registered: 09/21/00 Posts: 43703	In trimming down my setup I stopped carrying the folding type stools, etc, and just go with whatever they have regarding a chair at the gig,......alleviates transporting more gear too. And all my wires are Velcro tied also so they don't get messed up in the cases.
