Stage Size
Since we're at least seven pieces (and sometimes more), the Boat Drunks prefer a stage of at least 24 (wide) x 16' (deep). NO FLATBED TRAILERS, please.

Lighting
Nothing special, 8 or so par cans with multi-colored gels will do the trick.

Stageplot
Space and stage size determining, this is generally how the band will set up. Click here for a pdf printout of our stageplot.

Front Of House
The Boat Drunks utilize the Aviom personal in-ear monitor system, which directly affects how/where stage inputs are set. The configuration is simple, actually; the band will provide the FOH tech with 22 labeled outputs in three subsnakes that come out of our monitor head and are specifically for the FOH mix, to be put in whatever channels the board is set for. We do request that the main snake head be somewhere near the drums; we set our Aviom head by the drummer and our subsnakes are only 8 feet long. The band generally brings their own direct boxes and, in most cases, microphones. We will need the sound company to provide mic stands, (some) mic cables, and clips.

Monitors
The Boat Drunks utilize the Aviom personal in-ear monitor system, which means that stage monitors/monitor techs are not needed. IF WE DON'T HAVE THIS SYSTEM WITH US (which will be rare, but it will happen), the band prefers to have 7 individual monitor mixes on stage, one for each member of the band. We will let you know in advance if we're not bringing it with us, but, in these cases, it will usually be obvious (i.e. a multi-band show).
