Without them, the splitstack tapes would be impossible. The two red shir supervisors (Tony and Jan) are always awesome an will go the extra mile for you. I've written goodtime letters to thier supervisors before just because they're so awesome.
Dallas on the other hand is quite the opposite. I've had issues with one particular supervised there for the past ten years. Once to the point where I immediately went to his boss at the end of a show to alert her to this guy's douchebaggery and they offered me free tix to another show (which I'd never use not living in Dallas). at 2000.09.16 he grabbed my gf's camera after one shot an ripped the film out... Including all the pics from our entire week together which sucked since I neve go to see her since I was in Houston and she was in Oklahoma for school at the time. I can't believe that guy is still employed.

Fuck that douche in Dallas. When you had your broken foot and were working on breaking your gear down he was being a total fucktard. He kept shoving me telling me to leave despite my explaining to him that you and I rode together, and since I didn't have my cell phone, I didn't want to get separated and lost.
As he was shoving me up the aisle, he told me to "get a fucking life" to the extreme glee of his little cronies.
My response "Well, I've always wanted to be head usher at a music venue. How many years of school did you have to complete to reach this position?"
I thought he was going to punch me in the face, and I really wished he would have.
But yea, Woodlands security is MUCH friendlier. That bald skinny dude has always been extremely nice to me. I've been talking to him since my first show there in 2001.
