#45 - Mickey Curbishley on a career spanning almost 4 decades in the Concert Touring business
Mickey got his start selling tee-shirts on tour with AC-DC which led to an opportunity to make a move into lighting. His first lighting tour was with Sir Elton and there have been countless others since. Brought up in a household that included his father, legendary Manager, Bill Curbishley (The Who, Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, etc) - Mickey was taught incredible work ethic and continues to teach that today. It's also surreal to hear the story of SRV's fateful end in a helicopter that also took the life of Colin Smythe, Clapton's tour manager.
