I agree with you guys.
Besides, I think the stationary cold spark fountains LOOK better in action.
And unlike the Co2 guns, you don't want the sparks to be "sprayed" all over the place.
Too easy to shoot someone in the face.
And then there's the venue/fire marshal/insurance issue.
The high school where I work has a Radio/TV class.
This past Monday, I was asked to give a presentation on my days in radio.
So I was going thru old photos to use...and found this little gem.
A little rig I built myself, complete with a wireless controller. (ADJ Co-Pilot)
It's easy (and fun) to...
I was working in radio, so I was already spinning in clubs and at appearances.
So, I understood music, and loved all types of music.
The one talent I did have was that I was not shy.
I loved being in front of a crowd....and still do.
I like the mounting bracket allows you to position it wherever you need it.
They're kinda like the Chauvet Core, in a different shaped, smaller fixture.
The price you paid isn't horrible, since the Core is about $600.
I use my lappy for EVERYTHING.
It's my home computer, my gig computer, and my source for email and internet.
Unlike many of you, at a gig, my laptop is NOT my main source for playing music.
I have the automatic updates turned off....
and it's a Windows 7, so it's not bogged down with extra crap...
For the record, I posted this to start the exact discussion we are having.
Personally, I would never use this as a sales tool.
If I cannot sell myself, I am not going to "guilt" anyone into signing with stuff like this.
