theres something so special to me about calling the mic in the booth the "god mic" cause yes god is scolding me for not cheating out from the heavens above

It’s painful to realize that you don’t want someone around you anymore.

I made this blog because I wanted to be able to post things without my irl friends who follow my main seeing them. Now I’ve progressed to wishing I’d never shared any blog with them. And not seeking them out in other contexts. And avoiding them in other contexts.

I don’t know what I want.

tfw you search for something and. oh no. this is not what I meant. this is NOT what I meant

This week in tech I got to say “Fuck off back to him” over the god mic in a completely professional context and my life is now complete.

The utility power went out before and during the band concert tonight briefly due to high speed winds in the area. Luckily I just recently had the emergency light batteries replaced so they came on when the power went out like they were supposed to and we were’t in complete darkness.

People panicked though so after the first (very short) outage I used the god mic to say “Your attention please... in the event of a longer power outage please remain calm, the emergency generator will bring the power back on shortly”

It was the first time I’ve had to use a god mic in a show.

Also, if you have battery backup lights in your theater (you should), here’s a good reminder to test them monthly! :D

The God Mic Rule

SM: *on the god mic* This is God, now bring in the scrim.

ASM: Okay God, is there anything else?

SM: No my child, now go to he fly rail and prosper.

ASM: Thank you, God.

Ladies and Gentlemen, I can hear you eating your bags of chips. If you choose to eat in the theatre, please share your food with everyone! Thanks
