Checking in audio equipment after a rained-out event

A look at the check-in process we do when returning from an event. It's important to check all gear and equipment to ensure it is working for the next show.
Providing sound outdoors brings issue to the process of checking in.

I don't mind packing down in the cold, the hot or late at night in low light, but packing down in the rain gets old fast. A couple months back, the heaven's unexpectedly opened at a City Event. We had a river under the stage, the speakers got soaked, as did a load of other gear. Luckily, nothing was damaged but the pack-down of the audio and lighting gear, followed by the stage itself (the company I was working with has a Trailer Stage) meant we had a 5 hour pack down in torrential rain... It was not fun, and not an experience I'm looking forward to repeating. :D
