Stage Rigging - Are We Having Fun Yet?

[@wertyghjkl-fc3dx]

Thanks for posting this sort of content. Always wanted to work in live events. How often do accidents happen?

“In is down out is up” maybe not the best time or place to learn that😂

[@kokowa12]

Out of pure curiosity. I am an old Ironworker and Tower Man. How do I get this job. I have a resume. It is obvious, I would need to learn this gig.

No easy answer to your question. Check around locally and see if there is a stagehand labor provider in your area and start there. I see in your videos you have some climbing experience.

Hey you still looking man? Technically you need a degree and such there are a ton of companies that do this but depending on state union or not easy to get in. Most start you as a SH then work your way up to HR it GR depending on what you do.

Are you using a sheave? I can't pull when i'm sitting down like that. At least not a 1 ton bridal.

[@Globerson]

Well it’s not him pulling...

spending the better part of last night pushing made me really want to learn to rig :P

[@Mikes1800]

Although I can kind of relate to what you're saying, don't be fooled into thinking that somehow rigging would be easier than pushing cases. It is not.

[@slowgold20]

I dont mind the hard work... I especially dont mind a challenge. It's not about the effort, it's about what I'd rather be doing. In fact, of all the jobs I've had the easy ones have been the worst

[@Mikes1800]

Good answer. Rigging might be for you.
