Behind the Spotlight

Here's a random, non-cycling adventure... operating a spotlight at a country music concert.  Long story short is Ryan's brother-in-law organized a country music festival and tapped into family resources for man power.  After our last ride at Mohican Ryan asked me if I'd be interested in running a spotlight.  My reply, "sure, sounds like a good adventure!"

Jo Dee Messina was the first act, no spotlights needed.

Wow, these guys look pro.

After a 5 minute lesson on how to run one of these

things we were ready to go.

Jake Owen was the second act.  Throughout the show

a guy was giving us commands over the headset.

The third act was Dierks Bentley.  It became much easier

to see what our spotlights were doing after the sun went down.

It was a pretty cool vantage point for watching a concert.

Dierk's act was full of stage lights coordinated to the

music.  Our spotlight work was also coordinated

to the show, via commands over our headset.

 After the show ended we hung out atop our scaffolding

and waited for the crowds to clear out.  It was

an adventurous evening!
