[Dixielandjazz] Sound men...speaking of...

[Bob Romans]

Hi Listmates...curious me in Lodi...

I want to know who in hell the sound man was for Lincoln's Gettysburg address? What mikes was he using? What speakers, etc! The ceremony was outside, fer gawd's sake! And everyone heard it!

What in hell happened to the art of audiences just listening?

Approximately 15,000 people are estimated to have attended the ceremony, including the sitting governors of six of the 24 Union states: Andrew Gregg Curtin of Pennsylvania, Augustus Bradford of Maryland, Oliver P. Morton of Indiana, Horatio Seymour of New York, Joel Parker of New Jersey, and David Tod of Ohio.[10]
