Based in Riverside we are not content to perform the same songs as every other "classic rock" band. In Bed By 9 tackles such eclectic tunes as "Strawberry Fields Forever", "Nights In White Satin", "The Sultans of Swing" and "It Don't Come Easy". Sure we could play all the same material as every other band out there, but why would we want to? "Classic rock with a twist" describes our music to a "T"!
Professional sound equipment and stage/dance floor lighting only increases the enjoyment of the musical experience. See www.paxsound.com for sound reinforcement details.
Fender, Gibson, PRS, Line-6, Epiphone, Yamaha, Carvin, Roland, SWR and Alesis are just some brands we use for guitar, keyboards & amps.
Mixing is done with a Yamaha MG32/14 FX 24 channel mixer. Depending upon the size of the venue, mixing can be done from the stage or remoted using a 100 foot, 24 channel snake. Microphones include models from Shure, Audix, AKG, EV, Nady, Samson and GLS. A stereo CD player pumps out music when the band is on break.
Stage lighting consists of two trees each containing 4 Par 46 cans with color gels. These are controlled by an Elation Stage Setter 8 DMX lighting console. Dance floor lighting consists of two stands connected by a 15' truss. Lights include American DJ Quick Scan System , American DJ Moonflower System, American DJ Tracker System II, American DJ LED DMX controlled strobe lights, American DJ Laser Widow and fog machine. These are also controlled by a separate Elation Stage Setter 8 DMX lighting console and can be manually controlled or set to "chase" to the beat of the music.
