At our first venue for the big show, on the campus of Cal State Northridge, a bunch of us on the crew decided we needed a better way to get around in sunny California. As foreshadowed in this post, we sought out portable transportation to make life on the road a little easier and more fun.
Tim bought a skateboard off a college kid, Meaghan and I ordered Razor scooters on Amazon, and Mariela picked one up from Target. Daniel was seeking out a used bike on Craigslist, but after some failed attempts, is finally getting one today, we hope.
I’ve been making good use of my scooter, running errands farther away than I would really want to venture walking.
Our scooter / skateboard parking at the Granada in Santa Barbara:
The Granada also has a sign insisting that if you block in somebody else’s vehicle you have to inform them. So this is me informing Tim. He didn’t take it well.
At night we had a production meeting at a seaside restaurant. After dinner we walked along the docks, where we sadly found a sign prohibiting skating, scooting, biking and any other forms of fun.
Our skating / scooting crew:
Me (PSM), Meaghan (ASM), Tim (Sound), Mariela (Wardrobe)
we should have got scooters at reagle, getting from the FOH to Backstage would have been fun!
