i realize there is a previous thread but i couldn't find it..

has someone identified whose handwriting is typically on the setlists on stage, at the soundboard, etc..

seems there are many different styles for each show..

thanks in advance!

    This is the scoop that got from Karrie Keyes (Rat Sound): Eddie will write out a setlist which is then copied for the crew. Additional notes may then be added by the respective crew members. So, if you acquire a copy of the setlist from the monitor tech, house engineer, guitar tech, ect. they will have different notes alongside the song listings. Hope this gives you your answer.

    you're quite right.

    eV will spend the day of a show thinking over the night's possible setlist and once he ultimately decides on a final setlist (with or without the rest of the band's input) he hands over his written setlist to Kevin Shuss who then writes down the FINAL setlist in his handwriting. Kevin distributes the setlists to the band's techs/security/FOH. Kevin has been in charge of the setlist write-up process for at least the last 10+ years.

    that's what was so neat and exciting about obtaining eV's setlists from the Vancouver solo shows (and all the eV solo shows in general), the setlists are in eV's handwriting :D
