I can't see one review of the BishopSound rig.

Good ???   Bad ?????  Tolerable  ????

Appalling  ?????    Too chemically-influenced to notice  ????


If your vaccinations were mandatory and nobody in your class had measles,
then you know that you're not a Millenial kid.

Just looked on the Bishopsound website.

Quote Bishopsound debut at Glastonbury. We rocked Glastonbury for the first time. British Sound Is Back

Anyone know where British Sound has been?

I'm not sure how reliable it is, but I thought I read something on FB about a load of their stuff getting impounded by customs on the way into the country.

So that photo on his site is either from another event, or it was removed / blown up because here’s a photo I took on Saturday:


It’s a DAS Variant system.

I’ll upload the video when I finally get home.

Looking at the end of the second paragraph of the BS (hey, now that might be appropriate) page, I saw this "new stage being run by the long-established Glastonbury suppliers, Bristol based A1 Entertainments."


AKA the A1 disco shop in Oldbury Court, Fishponds;  I know that Paul at A1 has a DAS rig - so they either didn't get the BS rig (hey it's getting catchy) in time or didn't think that it would be up to the job and put in something that was more suitable.

Just wondering if I'll get a reply if I ask BS on their website if they have any pictures of the rig in action ??

There’s this on the site.



And this from Facebook. Shame as I actually wanted to see and hear it.


He employs a very good digital marketing and design agency, who are not cheap. That’s why the website is actually dead good. In short, they’re putting a good spin on reality - marketing! - but it works because he’s making enough cash to be spending serious money on that sort of thing, and if their report is correct they’ve actually dramatically increased his sales.

That said, seeing some hilariously low budgets for stages at various events, and worse, reputable companies doing events for a ridiculously low price, in some cases under 0.5% ROI on kit, I’m not surprised he’s making headway.
