Now as for stagehands, well that's just manual labour which you can get into the day you leave school. It's also not considered marketable, therefore, no credit.

I am a guitarist and by definition I used amplification and therefore electronics. On top of that I am an IT guy so needless to say I use computers and more electronics blah blah. There is a constellation of electronics you can use and I always get this clash with ol school guitarists that favored all guitar things away from computers and keep it more "tube". I don't give 3 shits. Now looking at this drum set up I am soooooo fascinated at how well planned and responsible he is. Like NASA he has redundancy in his set up. This is how a professional does it. I am about to pick up drums and teach myself and this is very motivating... except I will learn on a $500 Alesis electric kit my son doesn't use anymore LOL! Anyways this kits seems like the Millennium Falcon's cabin! I would just love to have a quarter of that and just go at it and disturb the neighbors, LOL!

She headlines tours around countries, it's all about her. Man, someone take this kid back to school, shit.

He really doesn't have much to remember. As an experienced E drummer myself I can attest to the fact that if you do this on a regular basis, it's not difficult remembering what each pad will trigger for each song. I've performed highly elaborate and sophisticated pieces such as Jan Hammer's "Oh Yeah" and "Time is Free" on pads, even playing a 144 note MiniMoog solo on ONE pad (Alternate Mode DrumKat) with pitch bend via pedal and note hold via breath controller. So, just sayin' - he doesn't have it too tough and he's not just triggering sound fx - not at all. I DO love his laptop setup with a backup! Great rig he has.

This kit and all that is going on in insane. The view must be good at times as well.

You have to remember that the tour contains songs that have all the different sounds by default. You either can add the drums via a playback, or you play them live.

You can't play the show this way, by using a standard kit.
