Hello CB!

[IdlePhase]

Hello everyone, I am a member of my high school's technical crew and I joined CB so I can learn about audio and lighting equipment. My high school lacks a "Technical Theater adviser" and any courses or programs pertaining to technical theater, sound, or lighting. The equipment inventory at my school consists of what I understand to be mostly gear from the 90s and way before, and much of it is forgotten, mistreated, dusty, and in storage. I came here because I saw CB as the best place to ask my many questions, read the wiki articles, and observe the work of others. I posses only a limited empirical knowledge of this field but I love technical challenges and hope to unlock the rich potential of my school's resources by learning from you.

Thanks for the great support so far.

See? I told you not ALL high school kidz was stoopid!

Welcome, IdlePhase, and congratulations on composing a grammatically-correct post beyond grade eight reading level. That goes a very long way with me. Maybe you read http://www.controlbooth.com/forums/new-member-board/8599-cb-technical-forum-english-class.html before posting? Doesn't matter.

The only dumb question is the one you don't ask (or one whose answer can be easily found via a search).
