JOHANNES BERGMARK

 Floor surface minimum 3x3 m.
 Stage lighting.
 PA-system with stereo inputs, preferably with sub-bass.
 1 Microphone stand with an arm (for my own voice microphone).
 Possibly 1-2 condenser microphones for acoustic sounds (depending on the acoustics and size of the hall).
 Monitored hearing on stage, or the loudspeakers from the PA behind me. (If a small room, a simpler arrangement with a keyboard/bass amplifier will do, on a chair behind me. Please no guitar amp.)
 2 stools (or chairs without arms).
 A table, normal height, minimum 1,2 meters wide.
 A singing (musical) saw if available, otherwise a large, not rusty, hand saw.

 Height of the ceiling / pole above the floor: at least 6 m, preferably 8.
 Ladder for ceiling work (first for mounting the strings, then a lower one, possibly a chair, for climbing the instrument before and after playing it).
 Existing poles, tubes etc. in the ceiling or a corresponding high point (even outdoors) are the easiest solution, if they hang out at least one meter from any wall.
 (Otherwise drill and hooks if necessary: possibility to drill up hooks in the ceiling, which can be charged with the weight of one person - or a corresponding stable system for hanging, like a pole.)
 PA with a "jack" (tele)-entry close to stage or a DI box on stage. The Stringed Stirrups are amplified with a built-in contact microphone.
 Monitored hearing on stage, that can be well heard from my hanging/playing position.
 Stage lighting.

 A silent sleeping place with shower and breakfast (private accomodation ok).
 Hot vegetarian meal.
 Fee: 4.000 SEK (roughly 500 euro, 1.000 DEM or 500 USD) + travel. Travel money can possibly be applied for from Swedish institutions with a written invitation in good time.
