Gearing Up for Greatness

The Hollywood Bowl "Gears Up"  for the 2005 season

by

Linda A. Epstein - May 2005

Its early April and as I make my way up to the sound booth there is a lot going on for this early in the year.  Walls with new sound baffles, lots of fresh blue paint, stacks of L-ACOUSTICS  speakers being hung, a fork lift delivers the main mixing console  into a newly carpeted sound booth, box after box Yamaha sound equipment being opened brought in and set into the racks,   the boys at the Bowl are getting ready for the Hollywood Bowls eighty third season.  Somewhere in this mix of equipment are four tablet PC's, one of which is mine.
