NASHVILLE – Bandit Lites recently added to its rental inventory with a significant purchase of gear including Robe 1200 LEDWash, Robe BMFL, GLP X4, GLP X4s, GLP X4 Bar 10, Clay Paky B-Eye K20, Aryton Magicdot-R, Aryton Cosmopix-R, Chauvet Rogue R2 Beam, Chauvet Rogue RH1 Hybrid, Elation Cuepix Panel, Philips Showline Nitro, Tyler GT Truss, Tyler GT Corners and other Tyler parts. The gear was quickly put to use for a variety of show, including the Grateful Dead, pictured here.

More details from Bandit (www.banditlites.com):

With the massive increase of fixtures, it was only natural that a large purchase followed of cable, distribution and R&R flight cases.

Bandit Chair Michael T. Strickland stated, “It seemed that no matter how many of these items we purchased monthly, there was always a demand the next month for even more. To meet the demand we have simply ordered a large quantity of each fixture with the knowledge the demand will be there.”

This latest round of purchases was not job specific, but inventory driven. The gear was all received the start of September and as suspected: it all went out the door within a week. This investment was on top of weekly job specific investments made by Bandit.

All of the wonderful manufacturers have been fantastic to work with and have made Bandit’s job easier with their back up and support. Bandit continues to grow and add staff to meet the market demand. The next strategic investment is already planned, and Bandit feels certain it too will be booked very quickly.

Strickland said, “We are focused on delivering the highest quality service, and that starts with the best people in the business. From there we need the best equipment supplied by world class vendors. We know we have that situation occurring, and it fuels our rapid growth. Thank you to all the manufacturers’ for all that they do!”
