Maroon 5 Load In 

This is really cool. People who set everything don't get enough credit and seeing this video shows how much work goes into the show.

in all honesty, people who do this deserve so much more recognition and credit. without them, an artist would be unable to sell out stadiums or arenas. amazing hardworking individuals. much respect and thank you to all the people who work tirelessly behind the scenes.

I worked a Maroon 5 show in Nashville a few years ago when they had the "fish tank" stage. It was a huge pain in the ass to build but look cool as hell when during the show.

Watching this brings back memories of the years I worked for one of these companies and hearing someone bellow "TRUSS IS MOVING!!!"

Stage design and set-up is a science in its own right literally.

What a beautiful time lapse! I use this video to explain to friends and family what it is I do. I pretty much just narrate over the video and explain what everyone is doing.

Ive seen this show so far 4 times on this tour.. and the lighting is SO AMAZING nothing like we have ever seen before at a Maroon 5 show! The fans LOVE the production of it!! Amazing job!

It was a truly amazing show, and I knew tons of work had to go on behind the scenes to make it all happen. Best concert I had ever been to! (Detroit 2/14/13) Incredible job done by the whole crew! Bravo!

WOw, amazing work, you guys are fantastic!

Great video. Thanks for taking the time to put together. Behind the scenes production is what makes it worth the ticket price IMO.

This is so awesome! Great job!

"Truss Moving!!! ..... Like Jagger...."

props to all those awesome people for putting that together!

I absolutely love this, it's amazing! Thank you for sharing. The crew does a fabulous job.

Wendy, load in is from about 8am-4pm just as XSimplexMindedX said. The bulk of the work is usually done around 2pm depending on the venue and how much dock space we have. The out averaged about 2 hours and 20 minutes throughout the tour.

Awesome Jeff! Totally awesome. I even paused the Kings game to watch it.

It's incredible. I can't wait for the European tour!

What a loaddd in it was amazing dude

This was a combination of a few shows. It was shot with a GoPro HERO2 camera. Each angle is a different show because on this tour I only had 1 GoPro out with me. The shows that come to mind are Kansas City, Jacksonville, and Omaha. I think there was one other, but Can't think of it off the top of my head right now.

All I can say is Amazing!

Good Work I.A.T.S.E. LOCAL. Nice Load in

This is Labor..The average day for a stage hand is 12 hours.. Most shows are 4-6 hour blocks in a 16 hour turn around but...Shows like this can be a full 20 hours on the run,. We are busy Unloading trucks, Pushing boxes, Hauling up LED walls, unstacking decking and setting up the stage, hanging the truss after setting lights and motors, Running speakers, Wires Subs and video equipment.. then . Boom, Show time, Take a break, 30 min- 2 hours to eat and take in the view, Then, Lights up, end of show, We break it all back down, stack it in crates, cages and boxes, We then push all that equipment around corners Up ramps and through corridors for nearly 1/8 of a mille to a line of trucks and We pack it all back up for the next show. Some of us, Do it all over again 4 hours later . Keep that in mind when you are planning your day at the office for the Concert this weekend.

simply wonderful video thanks..padrisimo me encanto

I'm so glad most of my concert going days was in the 1980's before all the distracting giant video screens.

very cool!

Yes.

amazing

nice work..

Wow amazing

Very cool.

I just checked and the show was from Jacksonville, FL.

Still rockin a pm1d in monitor land.....risky business ;)

Come to Georgia!

Very nice video good

I Love song I LOVE Maroon 5! I LOVE Adam!

That is One More Night by Maroon 5

not one..but TWO GrandMA2s and a DigiCo desk.

Nice !

Hey just gunna let ya know that the other place was Tulsa Oklahoma cuz I as there! I match the shots u got with my vids and n that was the place! Very cool video btw I subscribed!

Fantastic insight, thank you for the reply. Huge undertaking to set up these shows. Wall st journal had article this week about concern many techs/roadies are out of industry now so there is not enough knowledgable experienced workers for the glut of expected shows post-pandemic this summer.

These are always fun to see. I just wish the venue was mentioned for clarity. Anyway, question for all the experts who are reading this: does the venue/arena/promoter set up the camera for this footage and charge the band a fee or does a crew member from the band set up the camera in advance? Just curious about the logistics/process.

Moron 5 is one of those bands I don’t tell my friends I like. It’s my guilty pleasure.

Eu gostei...quanto fica uma estrutura dessa ou similar...É tão dinâmica genteeeee...gostaria de saber onde orçar de maneira bem mais dinâmica. ..onde encontrar esse palco sem maiores dificuldades 💋👋🏼

This almost makes me miss working concerts, TV is much less labor intensive though!

I'm pretty sure im in one of these. lol I work for IMC out of the Miami area.....i remember the load in and load out of this production at the BB&T center in Sunrise. I got stuck in lighting working for a guy with piercings in his face with a funny nickname.......damn, what was his name!? if you work for Upstaging i'm sure you know. lil help?

OMg is amazing! From where is this show?

was this the Minneapolis show? I was there (:

I whold love to do this for my career

haha every one warping 8-D anyway amazing video !!

No Maeexx, it was mostly Kansas City and Omaha. The show was in Washington DC I believe, I can't remember.

Nevermind, i remember. Cuddles was the guy that ran lighting.

Look cute after seeing the one from Rammstein

None of these were from LA, Most of them were from the end of the tour. Each view is a different day.

hey are you on tour with them

Amazing! Sound system? L-Acoustics?

was this done by upstaging? I wanna get a job with them so bad I have 4 years lighting and sound experience from highschool starting to go to school for it and want to work for a awesome company that does things like this

Arena changes like 3 times

Does the band bring their own stage, and bring their own lighting rig? Or do the buildings provide it for you? Do you use just 1 for the tour, or do you need to send to one ahead to next night, so it is set for the show on back-to-back nights?

Approximately how long does this take?

It looks suspiciously like Muse's 2nd Law stage

You should find the venue bigger than this.

Were any of these in LA?

was this in san jose?

gopro camera? 64GB microSD cards? how long does the recording take and what resolution 1080p ?

No, because of the song that was used, RU-vid blocked it from mobile devices, I wish it could play on mobile devices.

Who’s in charge of pay for sound guy, people who set up stage equipment, truck drivers (or truck rental fee), and others? If their pay gets from the concert ticket fee, actual pay performers get would be low, I think. Or Do performers get all of the amount of concert ticket?

what projectors are you using for the rear projection displays?

I don't know why the M5 will not come in italy!!!

can u make it mobile friendly please

What type of concert speakers of those???

Is this really done in 24 hours? O.o

what an artist sometimes don't understand, its the artist that is paying for all work. Record company advances the loan.

:O

What they have a whole 20 people For one hit wonder band

None of this was shot in Minneapolis, Sorry.

Why are the screens SOO high up?

Tokoss

How long did it take?

Was*

be nice if mobile could view it too sigh

Can anyone tell what's the name of that thread were hanging speakers ?

There are only 12 trucks?! Bon Jovi has 100-150!
