Again, your production really was world class. Hope it got the response for The Powers That Be to do it again next year.

Unless you're deservedly braving the hazards of coconut palms, please come to the DO. It would be great to talk about it.
So the truck has near 30k BTU's of cooling power but in the extreme sun and heat could only get the temp down to just below 90º. Every day at about 4pm when the sun would finally dip behind the buildings would it finally cool off in the truck (it's a video control room, BTW. Everything on the three screens comes out of the truck. I'm the engineer).

Hope you can turn up tomorrow night for the DO!
Yeah during the performances I'm locked in. Yesterday was especially challenging because we had to interface with Comcast's production team so they could also capture the video to release on their On Demand.

I wished I could have wallked away to see Taj Mahal.

Sadly, I'm already out of town, getting the truck ready for the Gathering of the Vibes in Bridgeport, CT this week. See ya next time!
