Do we know the actual stage dimensions from say 1989? I was thinking placement of gear, racks, and most important drums? Even if I knew mic placement say from Phil to Brent? I can kinda guess from pics but it would be cool if we had the floor plan. Thanks

Didn't they have Healy pads by then? If bleed is what you're asking about...

[jdsmodulus]

yeah they had the pads, I was just wondering about the actual pacement of everything in terms of feet. Drum risers etc

Several years back, I made a 3DSMax model of the 1974 Wall of Sound , with approximated stage layout. Off the top of my head, iirc it was around 57 ft between Jerry and Keith's side fill stacks. Been thinking of making a whole series of models showing the stage changes through the years, adding and changing as knowledge becomes available... but eh, when will I have the time?

If you have a photo from a good (or no) angle, with clear lines of sight, you can use the width of one 12" JBL to try to approximate widths and heights in feet.... depth might be a little tougher.

thanks Tiger for that... we worked it out, we have a big room so it took some work but tonight sounded good.
