Who'll Make The Rain???

[spinner]

I went to a music event to talk to some people, make some connections etc. And I ended up talking to a person who wanted to do a music video. I know, who doesn't when you are at a music event. Here's the idea:

How could I make rain?

I am thinking: water hoses with the setting to spray widely, sprinklers, I would have to have maybe 3 or 4 hoses or sprinklers.

What could I build to hang the hoses/sprinklers from? How could I control the direction of all this water?

Any suggestions on makeshift protection of my camera? I have some ideas that I think would work, but there is absolutely NO WAY I will jeopardize my camera.

What else should I be thinking about?

As I said, I only started thinking about this last night about 2:00am when the event was just ending. But I really starting thinking:
I wonder if I could do this....???

I may need 5 watering cans for a 5 piece band....

Only if you're using five cameras. The watering cans aren't used to wet down the scene during the shoot... just to push water in front of the lens.

I've always found a plant sprayer the best thing for wetting down actors.
