The venue is west of me, in the same mountain range. But, it's a couple of hours away. So, I have no idea if it's the same micro-climate. Ain't gotta clue.
Right now, they're saying rain on Friday and then drizzle and thunderstorms for Friday night.
you sure do not want to be playing outside in thunderstorms
Oh, fuck no... No, we've got a stage made mostly of metal. It has giant rods that you pound into the ground with a sledgehammer just to ground it.
But, then we had thousands of watts of electricity running on and around it.
Those grounding rods ain't gonna do a damned good if the stage gets hit with lightning.
Yeah, that is not something you want to fuck around with.
Though if the band were to be electrocuted during the performance, that would be one hell of a show. The people in Maine would be talking about that performance for many years to come
