Another Silver Bullets and @slone_jerry design! The crew did not get to go home after Oklahoma, they were in St. Louis converting the 360 rig into this rig in about a day and a half. I could not be prouder of the entire crew. @atlspecialfx @mootv @specialeventservices @g2.structures @concertstuffgroup @specialevent_transportation @gallagherstaging

I hate to pick favorites out of the show, but ive gotta say that Back in the Saddle is such a fun song to run. We don't use audio playback at our shows, so we don't have anything to get timecode from. So my show is 100% manually operated. Most of it is cue lists, but for some songs, I have a bunch of fun buttons! Thank you for your trust and support @lukecombs @kappy @zackmassey Thank you from the bottom of my heart to our production partners for making this happen! @concertstuffgroup @specialeventservices @g2.structures @mootv @atlspecialfx @guardianbarrierservices @taittowers @gallagherstaging Special thanks to my creative partners Video Director- @tyhutch86 Screens Producer- @_midnightsunn_ Co-designers @slone_jerry @wlowdermilk3 Co-programmers @ilikelites @jalancox Justin Duguid Production advisor- @mbrammer1

The sky was looking incredible after the afternoon rain shower here in Okalhoma.

@ayrtondigital EagleStrikes are making this show possible! I use these as Followspot fixtures and when they're not doing that they are general room lighting. Thank you @actentertainmentna for turning me onto these fixtures! @concertstuffgroup @specialeventservices

It's going to take a few days to process this. I will never forget being at Bonaroo outside in the artist compound when @slone_jerry came up to me and said. "Luke's ready, bring your laptop and let's go to his bus." That walk was only like 100 or so feet from where I was sitting, but it felt like miles with how much my thoughts were racing. Jerry and I had come up with an idea that was bold and designed to make a statement. Also, for the first time in my design career I wasn't 100% sure how it would all work and fit together. But like so many projects before it, with Jerry at my side, we always make it work. We've leaned on each other more than ever, and I will never understand how i got to be so lucky to work with such an incredible man, but i digress. Luke loved the concept and we took it from there. What followed was thousands of hours by hundreds of people to get this thing built and on the road. I am in awe of the trust placed in me on this project. First and foremost, Luke. But also everyone dedicated to putting it together. I am trusted to not waste their time and money. This is a heavy responsibility, one to not be taken lightly. Getting to express my creativity at this scale is something impossible to appreciate or communicate. I NEVER thought I'd be able to do this, and I hope I can again if called to do so. I love the pride that everyone involved brings to the table. I love being able to design something that makes people happy. I love the love. On this tour, we say I love you to each other. And we mean it. Thats why I work so hard and care so much. These people deserve it and I gave this project my all. Walking in the stadium today, I was at a level of peace and clarity I've never experienced before. The hard work was done, all we had to do was go out and create a memorable evening for the fans. Mission accomplished. Thanks for reading.

So happy to once again support the incredible Wynonna Judd on her Greatest Hits tour! We at Silver Bullets designed a new floor and flown package designed to scale to a wide variety of venues. We challenged ourselves to create an easy to deploy but immensely impactful package. We are thrilled with the results!

Well! Third time is the charm! Glad to bring this home for the Luke Combs lighting team. They are the absolute best in the business! It would take too long to thank everybody individually who has helped and supported me over the years. You know who you are and hopefully already know how much you mean to me.

An updated view of my console. I like to keep it minimal. No array of screens, timecode, multi-views or even desk lights. Just my Fullsize a couple PU-L for processing a shout and a com headset. I'm proud of the hundreds of hours that i have put into this show file. It's had it's ups and it's downs, but I can't imagine using any other platform than MA3. @ma_lighting_international @actentertainmentna
