They just don't seem to care too much about safety where anything is
concerned. I've seen some things that were just completely insane.
We did a gig in an old cathedral on a hill outside Guanajuato. I noticed all
our gear was running really hot. I followed the leads & saw that someone had
wired us up (with uninsulated wire) to a tap on the telephone pole just
outside. No distro, no service box, just bare wires wrapped around the lines on
the pole.

Hi Scott,
That definitely tops my "gig from hell" story of running multiple
extension cables to an 18th century house and playing on a trailer bed
covered with snow, only moving to the ground to be shocked
continuously and having to cancel the show. I laugh now because it was
so long ago.
I wish you the best of luck with your music venture(s), please let me
know if my company can help you with any power solutions such as
isolation transformers, etc.
Cheers,
-Steve
