EscapeRocks Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 So I got bored today, and lined up my ode to Apex stands. Then i setup what I would have onstage if I had the space, time, and roadie to help Who cares if it's not practical? To me, it's all about fun. (see my rotating stand thread). We are actually playing a very large festival-type show where we're the only band later this year. Very large stage. I may just set this up. Just because. Did I ever tell ya I have an absolute blast doing all this stuff? http://i253.photobucket.com/albums/hh58/escaperocks1/1891206_475772649195216_1098360450_n_zpsb0b8053a.jpg David Gig Rig:Depends on the day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr 5ives Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 Thanks David, I wish I could paint keyboards like that. If your really bored there's a clip i did called "Gang of Five" it's just me blabbin' about the keyboards, but I do have a funny voice. Again that might be against forum rules. Anyways please post a video when you've got the spinning stand going on stage. Best to You D Veni Vidi Vici Vice Versa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DulceLabs.com Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 Looks like a cool set-up! Out of curiosity, what is the most keyboards on a live stage have you guys seen (either IRL, pics or video)? I mean for one performer.. Rick Wakeman? I counted 10 in one pic... Any crazy pics out there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean for one performer.. Rick Wakeman? I counted 10 in one pic... Any crazy pics out there? Chemical Brothers. I think I counted something like 20 - and that was just what I could see, not counting any VI's, etc. They had lots of analogs and modulars. I think part of the reason they had so many is that in some cases, they'd have one keyboard set up for one sound in one song. http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_QA7-i1eV57E/SbQkMh_AtDI/AAAAAAAABPo/KfyO33NVAvQ/s320/The%2BChemical.jpg Dan Acoustic/Electric stringed instruments ranging from 4 to 230 strings, hammered, picked, fingered, slapped, and plucked.

MorayM Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 About halfway through the set they lowered in a mirror at 45 degrees for a top down view of the action. It was a sight to behold. They also made a piece out of tuning all the analogue stuff, fascinating to watch and hear.

Tusker Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Great rigs guys. You might think JMJ's rig is desirable, based on his excellent video here ... [video:youtube]z_E8aGx777Q and a little less desirable based on this video here ... [video:youtube]bmAOLsMFRJo You might think so. I couldn't possibly comment.
