Be willing to do just about anything they request, yet explain repeatedly to them that this will all be…"
Brian Dettling replied to Bryan's discussion Prop Guns on stage in a school environment"You are on the right track, Bryan.

David Krajec replied to Bryan's discussion Hellllllpppppp ETC Revolutions in the group Lighting"I would suggest calling ETC and have a conversation with the folks there.
