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.

Their engineer Thomas pulled a mighty sound, using our Martin Wavefront and Midas Heritage 1000 console.

Monitors used our Yamaha M7CL digital console and EV XW15 wedges, they worked hard as the band don't use any backline and rely on the wedges for all their stage sound.

Vanessa Amorosi toured throughout Australia in June/July in support of her new album "Somewhere in the Real world". The show was catered mainly for the Pub and RSL market and once again her lighting designer Rohan Thornton had to address a no smoke issue.

"Vanessa really doesn't like using smoke which isn't a great thing for a lighting person!" remarked Rohan. "Sometimes the lighting can look a bit bland without smoke."

Sebastian Bach

Sebastian Bach (the voice of Skid Row) came back to Australia in May for a tour and we supplied full production + crew.

A PM5D at FOH and another PM5D on monitors.

This was a LOUD tour, with 24 x boxes of Martin Wavefront as the main PA.
