Please discuss in advance with: Monitor system: Snarky Puppy requires 6 monitor mixes on identical sets of wedge loudspeakers. Paired wedges are preferred where available. Drummer’s monitor should include subwoofer. Each mix should be controlled by a 31-­‐band GEQ at the FOH or Monitor Engineer’s position. FOH system/position: FOH system should provide even coverage of the entire venue/audience area & should deliver >118 dB SPL (A-­‐weighted) at engineer’s position without distortion or limiting. Desk should provide 32 mono input channels & 4 stereo (or 8 mono) channels for FX returns, 8 group busses/VCAs, and 4 post-­‐fade FX mixes – 3 x reverb & delay with tap-­‐sync are required. Stage/Other: A minimum of 2 hours are required to load in/set up and sound check. 2 rolling risers (min. 8’ x 8’) should be available to assemble drums/percussion ahead of stage time. A spare microphone (SM58, tall stand) should be cabled & positioned SR or SL adjacent to stagebox, with enough slack cable to reach either side of stage. A spare DI should also be left with this mic. Hospitality: Dressing room & Backstage: A clean, comfortable and lockable dressing room should be available from the point of load-­‐in, for the duration of the event. The key to this room should be given to the Road Manager (TJ) on arrival and will be returned after dressing room has been cleared once more. 24 bottles of still water and 12 pre-­‐laundered towels should be provided in advance of stage time. As well as two cases (24 bottles) of good/local beer a bottle of whiskey (Jameson calibre or higher) and light snacks/fruit/vegetables
