Can an Audio 2 DJ really hold up in the club?

I'm a big fan of my A2DJ. I'm playing a gig at the Rickshaw Stop in SF, and want to use my VCI arcade, ofcourse!

I'm sure they'll have something to accommodate me, but I was hoping my strandard setup would work.

And even if it could, should I use something else?

Thanks!

Here is the provided gear info:

-Stage: 12 ft x 20 ft, 22" high

-Sound: Allen &Heath GL2800 32 ch console (8 aux), EAW mains and subs.

-live sound: Shure, Sennheiser, Audix mics. Countryman and other DIs. Drum mics for 1 kit. 4 monitors and 4 mixes.

-outboard: DBX 166 (8 channels), TC M-one, triple-c and other processors.

-DJs: Technics 1200s, Pioneer CDJ-1000s, Pioneer DJM-800 mixer. DJ monitor provided.

Never failed me once - still 'in the bag' as back-up to my S4.

it uses the same sound processor as its bigger brothers so there is no problems whatsoever

With the advantage of being able to parkour with it.

I've been around the block as far as stage dives go and I must say that seems like pretty impressive stage dive.

All I can think of from that video is someone saying "The day Skrillex broke my arm"

This video is telling me "yes, it'll even outlast the double consecutive loss of all your music files".

haven't had the chance to stage dive yet... but I'd have to agree. That looked like maybe a 15' by 10, maybe 12' leap. Would of loved to see the shot if he was short on the jump.:D

If that happened he'd probably just say "someone stole the cam!"

"The cam failed on me during a show" would be easier to believe coming from him

This is a pretty impressive stage dive too (or rather rig dive as strictly speaking, he's not on the stage)....

Huge Stage Dive
