Oh, absolutely. Loop-specific footwear is a non-issue for those with small feet. But for those of us with hooves over, say, size 10, the closeness of switch spacing often makes it impossible to only hit one switch at a time with our clodhoppers. In my case, I've just overhauled my pedalboard (again), and it's quite tight for my 13's. There's a shot of me looping a dulcimer clad in socks at <http://homepage.mac.com/slanny24/PhotoAlbum27.html> It's the 5th picture, the one where the film being projected is green. I'm just to the right of the square white shelves. And actually, the fact that I was accompanying a silent avant-garde film presented a more serious problem than the footwear. Normally I have SOME light onstage, but Saturday I was in pitch darkness and couldn't see my rack! -t- --- Rainer Thelonius Balthasar Straschill <rs@moinlabs.de> wrote: > I don't think the shoe issue should be neglected - > or rather be put in a > more general view: rehearse wearing the clothes you > want to perform in.
