Stairville Stage Tape 690BK

After messing about with low quality gaffer tapes and other stuff to set up my band's cables on stage and getting either poor results or some venues asking us not to use cheaper stuff as it often ruined their fancy stages - thought it was time to invest in a huge batch of this. This particular brand was recommended to me by several audio engineers and roadies for bigger bands. It's very tough and hardwearing but tears easily and comes off the stage or other equipment without leaving a residue. It's a lot kinder to our cables as well. Plus the matte black makes everything look tidier under lights. Seems silly that something so basic makes gigs more enjoyable but unless you're big enough to have a full road crew doing everything for you yet, you'll know how much nicer it is to have quicker set up and tear down with little improvements. So, yeah, buy loads!

I bought this tape for stage use, to fasten cables, setlist papers, microphones, stands and other stage gear. The price is fair and it's high quality. For me the most important thing about stage tape is that it tears easily and doesn't leave residue. This does both. Not only will it tear easily (without scissors or anything of that sort), but it will tear perfectly perpendicular or parallel to its edge (because the material has this almost woven type of pattern), which is great if you need it to look good. It comes off easily, as well, and leaves no residue, so it won't damage whatever you're using it on. Great product, would and will buy again.
