Craigslist (Clayton)

Walter (our sound engineer extrodinare) found this awsome deal for a full PA system on Craigslist for $400! The PA system is: 4 very loud 150 watt. monitors [huge speakers], a mixer, and a double sided amp. If all that was new that would all cost about $1500! It was also great because the guy [I think his name was Eddy] lived in massachusetts an hour drive away. Carl-Robert, Liam, Carl-Robert's Dad and I got in the car and drove to the guys place. When we got there we had extra time and there was a Newbury Comics in town. After that we found the guys house. He showed us how to work the thing and we carried it to the car. He didn't included the XLR cables which we needed. Lucky for us there was Daddy's Junky Music and Guitar Center in town [we went to Daddy's]. The Stupid Cables Cost $160!! THATS PRACTICALLY 100S OF BUCKS MORE THAN ALL THE FOUR MONITORS!! PLUS THESE WERE THE CHEAP CABLES!! We got back to his house and left all the stuff there so we could go see Shine a Light in IMAX. I highly recomend it. The next morning we set the mixers up with the help of Walter. Liam and I left when the problems started.
