PARKING:
Parking shouldn’t be too complicated. I’m currently looking to rent a parking lot in the area like I did in 2019 but I’ve had no luck yet. However, those who did the show in 2018 said they didn’t have any problem finding street parking.
If you have limited gear or shipped everything to us, take a taxi / uber to the venue.
If you are driving we’d recommend one of the following:
- Come in 1/2 hour earlier than you planned, drop off your gear, and then look for parking in the area – it shouldn’t be too complicated.
- Park your car in one of these parking places near the area and then walk or take a taxi / uber to the venue.
HOTELS:
If you don’t do AirBnb try the hotels highlighted here, the closer to Historic Filipinotown the better.
COMING TO REP YOUR BOARD OR SMALL SYNTH IN PERSON?
- You can bring it with you, of course, no need to ship it.
- Please show up at the venue on Saturday 06.09 at 11 am!
- Feel free to bring your own guitar.
—–WHAT WE NEED FROM PEDAL VENDORS—–
- PEDALBOARD WITH PEDALS: Attach your pedals on the board(s) and ship everything in the case to the address on top of this email.
- ***NEW!!*** YOU NEED TO BRING YOUR OWN AMP EMULATION DEVICE – make sure it has a headphones output.
- STUDIO HEADPHONES: At least one per board (we’ll provide headphones only for unmanned boards)
- AUDIO CABLES: Please use your own audio cables to connect the pedals.
- POWER: Please connect all pedals to power adapters so that they are ready to be plugged in.
- PEDALS WITH SPECIAL POWER REQUIREMENTS: If you are sending one or more pedals that require their own PSU, please include the PSU in the shipment and place a sticker on the pedal saying “PSU included in box.” Place also a sticker on a PSU with your company’s name on it.
- OPTIONAL INFO SHEET: Send the pdf or jpg file of the 11″x 7″ horizontal (or letter size vertical if you have a mini-board) for the info sheet (optional but recommended) to Paolo, see here for templates. – Send file to thedelirag – AT – gmail.com – DEADLINE: One week before the event
- WHAT SINGLE PEDAL(S) YOU ARE SENDING: If you signed up for one or more pedals in the mixed boards, please let us know which one it is/they are and send them to the 2nd address on the list.
—–SELLING GUIDELINES—–
At our shows, if you wish, you can sell direct. If you don’t want to, you can sell through the participating stores. If you don’t know what stores are participating, ask Paolo.
—–PLEASE DO NOT SEND/BRING—–
- HANGING BANNERS – we don’t have space for them, the 11″x17″ info sheet should have your logo and all the info about your pedals, and synth builders with their own table can bring one or two roll out banners.
- STUDIO MONITORS OR AMPS: Our events are strictly in the headphones – it helps with human interaction! You can only bring amp heads if they are not wider than your board, but you’ll have to play them through the headphones.
—— IMPORTANT: LUNCH ——
In all likelihood, at lunch time it will be too busy for you to venture out looking for a place to eat. We recommend that either skipping lunch or bringing a sandwich.
—
—— AFTER THE SHOW ——
GETTING MATERIAL BACK – SUPER IMPORTANT!!!!
Please send a Fedex (no other option) return label to this email address by 06.05: return.labels – at – delicious-audio.com, so that we can get the carriers to pick up the stuff and return it to you. The subject of the email should be: “[YOUR COMPANY] BK 2022 Return Label”.
If you want to also print a label, please don’t put it in the board bag’s pouch, but directly on top or under the board itself, that way we can’t miss it.
