I did my first outdoor PA gig last weekend. It was a "Wine and Jazz" festival in my own neighborhood. The great thing was that I could actually hear everything, so mixing and balancing the instruments and mics was a pleasure.
This is my 3-way system made from some vintage Sunn cabinets and some "repro" cabinets...all with JBL drivers! That's me in the yellow shirt with my two crew guys.
Fun, but a lot of physical work!
