If you're near a big city you can become a union stagehand and make a lot more money.

I am making 13 an hour......while typing this....Not 75 bucks, but not everyone can be as smart as Mr. fancy pants...

Normally I get about $25 per, but that was a special rate (~$37) and I was into double time. Cha-ching!

Or you can make several hundered bucks a day, with benefits, and screw the disability chump change. Plus it's show business. Live like a rock star... lol.

This is the board I mix on most days into about 100,000 watts of speakers. (pic stolen from google)

Those are touch screen panels. ($120k per desk, we have 3 of them)

Nice. I did a little audio engineering a few years ago, but it seemed like a hard job to get to the point of making money (atleast where i live). I got to mix at a few small shows, but most of the time, it was just set up/tear down work. I actually enjoyed the recording aspect more than live, but once again, it takes a long time to make money doing that.

This is what our speakers look like. Each box has two 15"'s, four 8"'s, and three 1.5" compression horns. They're not great, but we have lots of them. They work. JBL 4889 I prefer the L'Acoustic or Myer systems.

[chillin 10+ year member]

pretty sure we were using jbl line arrays as well. It was about 5 years ago and i was volunteering to try to learn more while taking a course. But when i found out the pay was 12/hour, I decided to keep bartending. As i said i was more interested in the recording side of AE anyway.
