Typical Day at the Office

The Road to Wrestlemania – the period of time from mid-February to April – is a crazy and surreal time to work for this company. For example, the WWE scheduled a press conference at noon in Los Angeles today. Not so crazy, until you realize that RAW, our normal Monday show, was more than a few miles away – in Phoenix.

The press conference finished at the Staples Center at 1 PM, we took off from the Burbank Airport at 2:30, landed in Phoenix at 5 PM, and were on the air live from the US Airways Arena at 6 PM.

Giant Audio Console for a GIANT press conference.

Wait a minute. WHAT?!? Over TWO BILLION in Pay Per View buys?!?

Every audio room should have a few of these. They were loaded too!

Needless to say, I didn’t get yelled at once all day.

Press conference over, time to jet to Phoenix.

The TV crew has their own chartered jet. Traveling in STYLE!
(I left the pistols behind.)

Cocktails? Why not?

Just another day at work.
(Yes they pay us for this.)

Ahh yeah! This is the life!

Back at ‘regular’ work – RAW live from Phoenix…

Whew!

Off to Tucson from more surreality tomorrow!

Obviously, work sometimes gets in the way of blogging.
The last two editions of the Costa Rica trip will appear as soon as I finish writing them.
