jennlkThe concert last Sunday went quite well. I had a bit of a moment when I walked in and realized the *shape* and size of the space I had to work with. (I did not *quite* swear in church.) It did not fit the shape of the band very well at all! [I don't think the actual shape of the space changed from the last time we played this venue, but the renovations had fixed some of the issues with the sound. (my mother said to J "these acoustics are dreadful" the last time we played there.)] BM was still out ill, so I had a list of numbers to work from for setup. I wound up doing the final setup (once we got the chairs into rows) pretty much solo, because I was making it up as I went along, and there just wasn't room for more than one person moving chairs. It was a very tight fit. It didn't feel as tight as some spaces, because the edges were defined by low things (altar steps, kneeler rail) so we didn't feel like we were up against the walls. The actual performance went well, too! I was very tired after that, though.
Still no external monitor at work - local IT thinks it's probably the cable, but he didn't look at it until Wednesday, so it'll be next week before I know. The IT company that does the system IT screwed up Treasurer's computer setup, and are being cagey about fixing it (too busy figuring out who did it, rather than how to fix it. To be fair, they may need to know who did it to know exactly what they did...). T is very irked by this, and is making noises about finding another IT provider. I think that's a bad idea, as this is the first time there's been any real issue with the IT provider....
I have not gotten into the garden at all this week. It's been chilly (highs in the 50s!) all week, and raining a lot. Today is supposed to be not rainy, so maybe I can get out there this afternoon and (carefully!) pull some of the very very happy weeds.
