LONDON – LD Susanne Sasic and production manager Steve Gordon called upon Bandit Lites in London to provide lighting for the European segment of the 2010 Arcade Fire tour, in support of the band's most-recent album, The Suburbs. Sasic's design included elements resembling a billboard, stadium lights and strobe towers, with beam, color and color temperature transitions helping define the different parts of the show.
The rig included i-Pix BB4s, Vari*Lite VLXs, and Chromlech Jarag PAR30s, plus VL2500 spots, BigLite 4.5Ks, ColorBlazes from Philips Color Kinetics, 4 Lights, Wybron BP 1200 Beam Projectors, PixelRange PixelPars and Martin Atomic Strobes with color changers, all operated via a pair of grandMA consoles.
"Working with Susanne is always great fun – she is a phenomenal designer and an ever better person," said Bandit UK's Lester Cobrin. "Having worked with her on REM and other acts, we always look forward to seeing her."
