Henry Rollins: Listen to the stage manager and get on stage when they tell you to. No one has time for the rock star act. None of the techs backstage care if you're David Bowie or the milkman. When you act like a jerk, they are completely unimpressed with the infantile display that you might think comes with your dubious status. They were there hours before you building the stage, and they will be there hours after you leave tearing it down. They should get your salary, and you should get theirs.

this reminds me of when I did stage crew. we hated the lead dude in the play and it wasn't til months later during another play when he stopped being a jackhole that we didn't want the light fixture to fall on his head.

Before that happened did you or anyone else come close to actually letting it fall on his head?

As someone married to an ex-roadie, I concur.
