What is your role in a concert?
I organize the material side of the show. I drive the truck for the group. I check that all the equipment works: instruments, microphones, for example. During the concert, I have a box and earpieces to check the singers’ voices and the musicians’ sound.
Where are you placed during the concert?
I’m hidden backstage near the stage, behind the curtain! But I’m watching the whole concert!
Have you ever had a technical problem to deal with during a concert?
One day, during a concert in Paris, the microphone of one of the singers was cut! A fellow stage manager helped me manage the situation in a very short time and the public saw nothing! It has also happened that a guitar does not work. In this case, we must quickly find a solution!
