WORKING WITH RIGGING RENTAL HARDWARE

GROUND SYSTEM

 Having inside working space is a great thing. Being able to build our truss system without dealing with the weather works. The system below is 42' by 34' by 25' high. we added 5' off the front for front of stage lighting. We are making some clever grapples for inter truss to hang from. Soon to the blog.
As you can see in the photos, we have a 20' and 10' circle truss hanging. All our Rigging Hardware and Staging is RENT ABLE. The one thing we like doing is providing LABOR. We can supply all your show/event LABOR. We specialize in RIGGING, STAGE CARPENTERS, LIGHTING TECHS AND AUDIO VISUAL. Payroll / Payroller is what we do, it is all about supplying qualified labor for your EVENT.

SEVERAL OF THE CREW THAT WORK THE PENN & TELLER SHOW

    Many years ago in a far far away town, there was a crew that believed FRIDAY was HAWAIIAN SHIRT DAY, working as a team was how things were, making sure the show was flawless, and at the end of the night, sitting around with a GOOD CIGAR, and FRIENDS, GOOD FRIENDS. We like working the Penn & Teller Show. This is where In-House Production started, and after 10 YEARS, we are still working the Penn & Teller shows 5 nights a week.

    This photo is from a long time ago. Some of the crew in this photo have retired and moved on. Then  replaced with new faces, but most are still working the Penn & Teller show every night. This is less then half the crew  that works the show 5 night a week.

     I have to say that working the Penn & Teller Show is one of them jobs that come around once. Most of the crew in the photo have worked with Penn & Teller over 15 years. Working their stage show, the TV shows, or helping with the props in there shop. I started with Penn & Teller back in 1992 when they first showed up in a strip showroom in Las Vegas. It has been a great job from day 1...... 

    Hawaiian shirt day has moved to Wednesday. Thursday and Friday are dark days. Its a GREAT SHOW!!!!!!!!!!!

INCREASE IN CONVENTION SERVICES COST.

Posted By Jim Wurm,

Electrical Service: The New Drayage 
If you're shocked by the escalation of gas prices lately you'll pass out when you hear what electrical services for trade shows can now cost.

According to Meeting News, gas prices have jumped more than 19 cents over the past three weeks, approaching the all-time high, according to the Lundberg Survey published Sunday. The average price of a gallon of self-serve regular is $3.76, the Lundberg Survey found. The previous survey three weeks ago found an average of $3.57. That means prices are now just 35 cents -- "within firing range" -- of the all-time high of $4.11 set in July 2008.

Not to be outdone by the hubris of the oil companies when it comes to setting prices, a recent show in Las Vegas charged $1,139 per hour to rent a condor, and $44 to rent an electrical cord for the show.
It would seem that exhibitor complaints about the cost of drayage may soon be drowned out by the gasps heard when they receive their electrical services invoices.
