Since I do street interaction, don't create choke points.  Don't step on someone else's gig,  Be aware to parade schedules so you won't be int the way.

If I may;if you are lucky enough to have a stage and then doubly lucky to have someone maintaining said stage,befriend that person quickly.
I am a stage Manager at Arizona and have been fortunate to have great acts on my stage.
I am pleased to say that now one or two of the acts actively ask me for advice for their shows.
I have only had one incident where a performer  earned my ire.

Hint never anger the person who has control of the sound/light board.

Yeah, our stage wasn't that high-tech, lol. It was a medium-ish stage "area" meaning that there was a large backdrop and a dirt ground surrounded by many benches. From what I could tell many "stages" at this faire had similar set-ups and some had a platform of some type. We could of used a stage manager though, lol! But I guess that just isn't done at this fair, and hasn't ever been done the 20 or so years it has been running. That would have been soooo handy.
