Nice Gig log bro...but watch that unedited music and maybe seperate your lights and your music to different circuits......5 STARS

(cont2) For your size system, 2 breakers should be enough. One for the sound, and one for the lights. Another reason it is good practice to keep the circuits separate, is to isolate any electrical noise from the lights, and from switching them on and off. Then you are less likely to get any "popping" sounds when you switch lights on or off. Hope this helps :)

(cont) The school's wiring is not bad, it's completely normal. Schools do not have 50 amp breakers commonly around the gym for you to pull from. Generally, outlets on opposite sides of the room are on different breakers, and also usually outlets at the front are on different breakers than the back of the room, if it's like a gym... but that's if you have to guess. Measure with multimeter, or ask where the breakers are, for someone who would know at the venue.

A lot of us older DJ's try to remember to advise some a bit newer to the business on things we learned a long, long time ago, but sometimes we forget, as so much becomes second nature, and we just don't think about it. What you need to do, is make sure you run your lights on a separate circuit always. That's what all of us running lights are doing, and in some cases, we may be running sound on one breaker, lights on another breaker, and a fogger on a 3rd breaker if we can find it.

I am not sure why someone gave you a thumbs down, you are dead on right. I gave you a thumbs up to even it out :)

Looks like a good log!Watch out for the unedited music, it can hurt you. Take my word on it, been there, done that. You can play a college party at a club and I would still consider going edited with some.
