    dude thats a lot of work for one dude.
    ive done full backline work and it cancels the point of having a tech cos itll take quiet a while to do everything.
    get a guitar tech and a drum/keys tech.
    i hope you have a lot of money for him/her.

    and i should also add that there are about 4 people doing it semi-professionally in dublin and unless you are a very well known band or as i say have lots of money, they wont be intereested.
    good luck though

    I've done some tech work but only guitar and bass stuff, never touched drums. It's not too hard but you have to be able to do stuff fast and efficently and not mind crappy conditions.

    I've done guitar/bass tech at Oxegen and other festivals and actually found it a much nicer experience than smaller venues. Better atmosphere and a lot more luggers.
