I have a lead photo that isn't on a light fixture with my name and contact info, plus, there is a booklet that goes with the show with the info that is on the online captions... The fixtures are over tables, so when I was putting up the show (in late afternoon when there were almost no customers) there was one booth that had been occupied since lunch time the head waiter said. They were having some sort of meeting and no one felt we should ask them to evacuate the spot briefly so I could put up that last photo. Finally they left.... One of the nice things about the diner is the friendliness of all concerned... I wouldn't have asked them to leave either though it was tempting!
