Bandit Lites is not only Garth's lighting vendor of choice since he began touring, but counts him as a cherished member of the Bandit Family. Utilising Mark Carver's design from previous inductions, lighting director David 'Gig' Butlzer was able to craft an evening fit for the musical icons being honoured.
Bandit supplied VL 3500 Spots, VL 3000 Spots, VL 3500 Washes, GLP X4S and a Grand MA 1 full console for control. Additional inductees included the late musician Jerry Reed, music prodigy Ricky Skaggs, Sigma Sound Studio Rhythm Section, Mark Miller, Lou Bradley, Ron 'Snake' Reynolds and Joe Tarsia, while Don Felder's guitar work on the Eagles' Hotel California was gifted the Iconic Riff Award and Allen Reynolds was presented with the Production Award.
