OH NO! Big Board, Little Door.



This isn't our trailer...our trailer has a basement.
 
So this morning was spent measuring the trailer....and the gear. It wasn't until doing this that we realized we are going to have some minor issues with the installation of the equipment.


Our board is a 32 channel Soundcraft Ghost. 

It's measurements are about 4 ft x 6ft x 10 inches. The door of the trailer is big enough but since it is right in front of the refrigerator we are unable to make the turn. We are going to have to pull out the main front window (see also: Front Shot). This sounds like a pain, but we figure  at least no one is going to steal it.




I talked with Erin (Aaron, Eryn, Air-inn, Error-in?) at ABC and they are going to do a story on us next week. She is a really fun to talk with and it was great to banter with her about the life of a big shot new reporter:) Apparently she still has a push lawn mower and she doesn't drive a Bentley....yet. 

She wanted to interview us and one of our local sponsors. I picked Rogue Garden Supply because they are local to where I live and they have been so extremely generous with the project. R.G.S. has made some amazing contributions, and their store is beatiful, so I only found it fit to have the interview in their store. She said she needed visuals....visuals make for good stories. I can't think of anything super awesome for her....Here at A.M.P.P. we are all about making quality and interesting news. I would hate to be the boring story between 'The Worlds Fastest Chainsaw Juggler' and 'Local Prison Forgets To Lock Up!'

Mabye I'll wear face paint


......because right now all we have for visuals is a board that is too big and a door that is too small.
