REO Speedwagon
Last night I had the sweet opportunity to run REO’s sound system for my buddies Ellis and Andrew as they opened for the classic rock group at the Adler Theatre in Davenport.
I was blown away at how friendly and accommodating the band and crew were to us. A bunch of great guys! For the most part, they have all been together since the late 70’s, including the crew…pretty amazing for any band, let alone one that has seen some major success and a large following.
The board was a Digidesign VENUE D-Show Profile…the more compact alternative to the full sized D-Show. However, I was impressed with its simplicity and power. There were a number of things that seemed awkward about it, but I did not really have a lot of time to get totally into it. Lots of power in the system, though.
Ellis and Andy were well received by the crowd with their songs. There was talk with the promoter about being able to go back and open with the full band for another act coming soon. Pretty exciting. God has really swung open some huge doors with this ministry!
