Yep I remember those day. Carrying around 24-36 par 64 lights and a PA with concert W bins that required removing doors from their hinges at some venues so we could actually get them inside.
And even when we opened for other bands like INXS they would roll up with 3 big rigs full of gear we had to help unload and setup ... one big rig for PA, one for lighting and one for stage gear. Those were the days lol.
Wow! Makes me feel like a 'wuss' for complaining about having to haul around a B3 and Leslie. And yes, I did have to own and keep a full-sized van dedicated soley to hauling that sucker around......but that was true for almost all the organ players at that time. Somehow, I don't seem to remember minding all that much, after all, we were young, strong, and getting lots of ....uh, female companionship
. Ahhhh, sweet memories.
