Ok. We had to be at the venue at 2 pm for soundcheck. Everything was good as we got there at 1:45 and had full access for our 2 cars full of stuff. Yes, we where told we had to bring our own backline. Once inside they told us that Megadeth's load in was stuck at custom's office and most likely we would had our soundcheck at door open. Most of the pictures were taken during that waiting time. What I did was get my console, Midas Venice 320, and set it up according to the rider I previously sent. After Megadeth's soundcheck (7pm) the guys from production told me that I only got line checks. Just then, It turned out that i had no signal from every channel with an insert in. For dynamics I had Klark Teknik so it was a big setback. I had to solve the problem and have all insert plugged out. Also, for some reason, I had no output from the group channels. I grouped kicks, bass and vox. So I dispossed of that too. And there's more, my band with only one guitar player sounded with an orange and a jcm900 head on two 1960 cabs. By the second song, the jcm900 somehow blew off. The final result. It was all ok. Audience was good. Not a very large venue but it was a sold out.
About the cameras thing, I don't know. We had our dressing room, and the bathroom was shared with Megadeth's. The guys from my band took pictures with Ellefson, Shawn and Chris. I couldn't because I was all the time during their sound check at FOH. The camera thing came from their road manager, who was all the time kicking people out of the hall during soundcheck.
