I guess I'm anal then. If the loops aren't to my liking (and it's my machine or print) I'd redo them too.

On topic, I used to know a few celebrities on a first-name basis when I was a 'Vegas stagehand. But not anymore.

Good for Paul Potts! He'll get a contract and a chance to sing a bit for real now.

Was that all due to the union politics, and was it that bad then?
This was back in the 2 man booth days in Chicago... of course union. Fred might also know about these guys. It woulda been fun to see these guys tamper with each others loops! Somehow I also see a British TV comedy being made out of this situation. Steve G. would be one operator running off reels and Brad would be the other operator running just his reels from platter both with fine British accents... Brad would just be switching his machine on and off for the different reels whilst Steve's reels are being shown. Bean would be in there somewhere...
