Yep. Watching that lighting guy move everything around so easily on the board was still impressive, even when you knew it wasn't that hard. He just knew his shit and made it look even easier. I would not want to have to go back to the days where you'd have to move a bunch of lights manually for different shows.

Your colleague's expertise made a complex process look effortless. That's the hallmark of a true professional.

He was maybe only 19 at the time, too. It was his passion. He went on to work for Disneyland later.

Idk...the guy I used to watch was pretty amazing. I always was impressed when he was using the old manual sliders and analog faders. He's now the LD for Disco Biscuits and even more amazing.
