What does it mean to be a roadie?
Will any of you wise folks enlighten me? I always wondered what it means.

Roadies are essentially the support staff for a musician/band. They are responsible for setting up and maintaining the instruments, lighting and sound equipment, etc. They are supported by a "local crew," which are basically roadies but they do not travel with the band, but are rather at each stop of a particular tour.
Roadies are basically the backbone of any touring act.
It means you have a bad back from years of lifting cargo crates and setting up stage equipment for bands
Or maybe not, lol.. http://www.amazon.com/Life-Times-Dr-Bong-ebook/dp/B005T63494
And correct me if I'm wrong, but the local staff is union and usually employed by the venue, correct?
