Tours

Jason Mraz

As part of his sold-out Australian Tour, Jason Mraz played a show at The Horden Pavillion in April.

We supplied all the audio production.

Our PA included our Martin Audio W8LC Line Array, Martin WSX subs and Martin Audio W8C out fills + infills.

2 x Yamaha PM5D/RH were used at FOH and monitors.

Monitoring used a combination of EV XW15 wedges, Dynacord Madras drum sub and Shure PSM700 in-ears.

Our crew for this gig was Chris Twartz, Neale Mace and Matt Andretta.

Harbhajan Mann

Indian performer Harbhajan Mann played at a Sydney show as part of his national tour in March.

The gig at the State Sports Centre featured our Martin W8LC Line Array, Digidesign Profile console and Yamaha M7CL on monitors.

Lighting was a mix of Martin MAC700 Profiles, Martin TW1 wash and MAC250 Wash.

One of our Robert Juliat "Victor" follow spots kept Harbhajan Mann lit throughout the night.

The Stranglers

In March, UK band The Stranglers came to Australian for a short tour and Entertainment Installations supplied production.

Our MD (Neale Mace) travelled with the tour as Production Manager / Lighting operator.

The band has sold over 35 million records and the show was full of their hits.

Soundwave 09

Soundwave 09 was held at Eastern Creek raceway and we we supplied audio + lighting + crew for stages 3 and 4.

Like a smaller version of the Big Day Out, Soundwave features bands from all over the world (many of whom we've worked with before) and had a crowd of about 26,000.

Stage 4 was the metal/hardcore stage and was headlined by Lamb of God, who played to about 5,000 people.

We used some of our Martin W8LC Line Array, Midas Heritage at FOH, Yamaha M7CL on monitors.

Tegan and Sarah

Canadian duo Tegan and Sarah played a Sold-out show in Jan at The Enmore Theatre Sydney.

We supplied lighting production and digital consoles.

The lighting rig (operated by Jarred Hawke) consisted of 12 x MAC700 profiles, 8 x MAC250 Wash, 4 x Martin Atomic Strobes + color scrollers, 7 x ETC Profiles, 4 x 4 Liters, Unigue hazer + fan.

Used the house rigging and added 4 x 2m truss uprights.

Bullet for my Valentine

Bullet for my Valentine (currently on-tour for the Big Day Out) played their only Sydney sideshow at The Roundhouse in Sydney Jan 09.

We've done them before and it was great to catch up with Dave (their FOH/PM) again.

Dave used one of our Yamaha PM5D digital consoles at FOH and monitors used another digital console, Yamaha M7CL/48.

Local lighting guy Jason Watt used our lighting and rigger Bryce Mace to add to the in-house at The Roundhouse.

The Angels

Oz rock icons "The Angels" are back and touring Australia with their "classic lineup". With Doc Neeson back out front this is an awesome show.

We're looking after production for the whole tour using our Martin Wavefront, Midas Verona at FOH. Monitors use an A+H GL3300 + EV XW15 wedges.

Lighting is using an interesting combination of 24 x Par64, 16 x MultiPar (VNSP), Martin MAC250 Wash and MAC250 Entours as well as Molefay Duets and a Martin Atomic strobe.

There's also some nice floor lighting effects using some LED Par64 cans.
