For electric violin with backing tracks I require an electrical socket.
For playing solo iddle ceilidhs, I require at least two sockets.
I have no technical requirements for solo acoustic violin
For solo acoustic gigs, I arrive half an hour beforehand to condition the violin and make sure the strings are in tune.
For electric violin + backing tracks I arrive one hour in advance to set up my sound equipment and violin.
I usually play for guests arriving, wedding entrance, signing of register and first walk as newly weds. Then drinks reception performance is usually up to an additional two hours of playing.
For solo fiddle ceilidhs, I require one hour to set up and one hour at the end to dismantle and unload. Performance time for a ceilidh is for a block of up to four hours of entertainment before midnight and includes disco if required.
