Was it running out of truss or headroom in the marquee?

Seems to be the case of last one. It is one support around stage and back line seems to run out of clearance. And because of that front line is left out because it would have been to low.

We only used the front 3 ways purely to get the extra 500mm or so to stick some cans on to was the front of stage. Height was a massive issue tho :(
Was still around 20 meters of truss on the van.

You can get horizontal corners in bilite, handy to have in stock for these moments. Rake the sides to get more clearance. Not cheap though I know

Yeah thats a good idea. Im still learning loads with the whole lighting thing. Have been rigging it for years but the whole design thing i find really hard as I dont seem to have that natural arty flair so have to try even harder. May mate James is very good he does most of our lighting.

32! Big smile

Have you thought of replacing the XBs with 1850/1851 or V18s at some point?

Yeah there will be 1850's going in them at some point, Just waiting for a bigger company to do a driver replacement so we can bulk buy second hand cheap.
To be fair the XB's are doing us fine as we rarely go out with less than 6 a side so couple together, any less than 2 a side dont bother then sound wank.
