April 25th and 26th were dedicated to getting setup for the various concerts that are going to be streamed in the oncoming weeks. We visited all of the buildings checking their initial setups and planned the best way to shoot each event. Also from the web perspective I setup all of the stream pages so as we are barraged with events I’m not creating any new code I’m simply interchanging what I have already created.
