Below is an example of a stage
plan. It doesn't need to be particularly elaborate
(you don't need a desktop publishing suite: a hand
drawing is just as good). Its main purpose is to
give people who are setting up the stage an idea of
where everything will be. This means the sound crew
can set up most of the microphones and stands - and
the lighting crew can also prepare - without having
to wait for the band to arrive.
If you are sending a stage plan,
don't forget to put the name of the band on it!
