There will be many areas available to work in and it would be good experience to work in as many as possible. From setting up rehearsal rooms to setting up drum mics for the sound engineer, cafe and venue duties to working with Munkipoo!! Yes Munkipoo!! |

I take it you mean in the rehearsal rooms. Half stacks and combos, mixing desks and mixer amps. It depends on which rehearsal room you hire. |

Hi Mike
CV sounds good, we do have openings for sound related positions. Richard Nelmes is already with us and we're sure he would be greatful of assistance both in Live and studio engagements. As Sky Studios plans to be a total music package we are open to new ventures and suggestions: "Sky Radio"!! does have a certain ring to it. We'll need to have a meeting with you to discuss your experience and the way forward with your envolvement in Sky Studios.
