Workin' For the Weekend.... or the first three days of the week......

Had a busy three days working with the City of North Las Vegas' mobile stage. Monday, Northtown (City of North Las Vegas) had it's independance day jubilee. THey have it a day early so that people can go to other fireworks shows on the 4th, at least that's my guess.. We picked up the Mobile Stage at it's resting place, and hauled it to Seastrand Park in the North-west. After a very smooth and quick setup we were available to help other parts of the Park and Rec dept, setting up tents, moving cases and cases of water...

SHowtime, at least 15,000 people filled the park, literally fillled every corner of it. Sticky Fingers, a tribute to the Roling Stones played two one hour sets, and let me tell you, they've got the Stones down, it was a very tight band, very convincing Mick, Keith-like guitar moves, great show!! THe fireworks were pretty big, and although I am not impressed with fireworks, it was a decent show...

Audio struck their gear, and it was time to take down the stage, again very smooth and quick.
16 hours from the time we got to the stage to the time we had it loaded and ready to go.....

Tuesday morning, met the other stage guys at the stage and took it down to Henderson for their Independance day festivities, got the stage set up quickly and got out of there, not our show like last night... Went home and tried to get a nap, went to Cory's for Barbeque, met his freinds and family, had a good time, went home and got a 45 minute nap, back to Henderson to take down the stage... Late night....
Wed, cleaning up the POD that the Special Events department had used to take all of their supplies to the park on Monday (office was closed yesterday) took back some traffic signs, nice and easy day.. tomorrow I sleep.
