Concert — Pärnumaa

Summer means the gear travels in dust, and you can unload in daylight at nine. Winter means the van arrives in the dark, the generator sits outside in minus fifteen, and every cable that worked in August is stiff by December.

Pärnumaa puts the venue an hour past the last rental house. If a speaker fails or a truss pin shears, the fix is what came in the truck. The crew walks the site the day before: where the power comes from, how far the van can reverse, whether the barn door is wide enough. A manor hall sounds different from a tent, and a tent in March sounds different from a tent in July. The rig follows the season and the season follows the room.
