    Tana Douglas

    Currently just 7% of live production technicians (such as sound and lighting engineers) are female. 7%. Now imagine how many female technicians were touring in the 1970s - almost none. Our guest today was just 16 when she took her first job as a roadie with AC/DC in 1974. I’m talking to the first female roadie, the incredible, Tana Douglas. Since her first role in the live sector as a roadie, Tana has worked as a sound engineer, a lighting designer and logistics manager. she’s worked with acts such as Suzie Quatro, Status Quo, INXS and Elton John and has over 30 years of touring experience across three continents. Currently based in LA, Tana recently released her first book, the memoir titled Loud. In this conversation I ask Tana about inclusion in production crews, how she feels audiences have changed over the last few decades, and about that time Iggy Pop threw her favourite leather jacket into the crowd. We also chat about mental health - please note there is a content warning in this episode, there are some references to suicide and drug use. https://www.tanadouglas.com/home If you need help please contact the wellbeing hotline :1800 959 500 Supportact.org.au
