Wait— a stage union? Is that IATSE down there?

I wouldn’t paint them all like that. Some of their members are brilliant and taught me a lot. Others were negligent cokeheads... but most of them got the job done.

Sounds like a bad crew more than anything.

Edit: can confirm the gaffer/duct tape thing, though. I once worked fixing up high voltage/amperage cabling and distro equipment. They always taped that gear to hell and it was terrible to clean and fix up.




I mean, probably a stage union? The issue is we weren't just putting up flats and hanging lights. This was all completely custom fabricated stuff for a trade show.


Yeah I worked directly with guys who built some high-quality custom controllers. They most-often had to be members of IATSE to work those gigs.
