The guys surprised me when they pulled this out of the band trailer in Naperville, but it worked and was cool as hell.

Nice riser! Simple yet efficient.

Maybe paint the buckets black or dark grey so they dont stand out so much.

Not only is it a cool invention, it's so cool the guys in your band did that for you. Good friends...

Riser is great.. Buckets stack and don't weigh a ton..

Missing... is one of these with head protruding from BD port...

Love it! And I like that the decks have aluminum edging. I would agree that you should paint the buckets with plastic paint of have a stage skirt made. Install with Velcro and no one would ever know.

As to the Gouldian Finches; my wife used to raise them and they are very cute. Not the least bit sinister.

Good point. I couldn't see that particularly well with my iPhone.
