The tech team takes its first look at the AVP tech specs
for the upcoming show…and are befuddled.

lyrics

Cool wash
Slow fades
House right
Splitting stage
No need for separation
Between new scene crossfades

Tight spotlight on the Alien’s face
He stands upstage
Right on place
Cool wash on upstage right
Corner to bring them back

A Pyramid mold
A Pyramid mold
A Pyramid mold
A Pyramid mold

Twenty-eight secret doors
Infinity mirror tunnel on!
Weird slimy eggs with puppet alien inside
Eight secret floors - how can this turn out right??

An Alien Egg
An Alien Egg
An Alien Egg
An Alien Egg

3D hologram at night
It’s center bright
Follow design

On the right
A neutral wash
On the right
A neutral wash

A cool blue
Stage left
2 meters wide
2 meters wide
2 meters wide
3 meters deep
2 meters wide
3 meters deep

A counter weight, coming on cue
And it fails to be trued
Over radio I hear it said
What else can I do??

I wheel the weights
I wheel the weights
I don’t wait
I’m not awake

A coffee break
A smoke break
It doesn’t help
We have to work!

Putting down the Marley floor
Kick it along until it’s scored
12 hours ‘til the end of the day
Props flown high and the canopy stayed

Up in the fly
Check all the ties
A source four
Fresnel‘s wide

The moving walls
The moving walls
The moving walls
The moving walls

All fly systems soared
We need more counterweights
To hold the pyramid mold
Of ancient walls in place

A 2000 foot tunnel to the pyramid
A 2000 foot tunnel to the pyramid
A 2000 foot tunnel to the pyramid
A 2000 foot tunnel to the pyramid…..
