USA - USA - Bandit Lites is once again working with ZZ Top - this time on the band's 2007 tour. Lighting designer Chris Stuba collaborated with ZZ Top's tour manager Pablo Gamboa, production manager Donny Stewart and Bandit vice president Michael Golden to ensure that the design coordinated with the band's image as well as the music itself.

Stuba chose Martin MAC 2000 washes, VL 3000 spots, VL 1000 AI, PixelRange Pixelines, Color KInetics Color Blasts and I-Colors, Martin Atomic Strobes and PAR 64s to light this show. Control is via one GrandMA and one GrandMA lite (Backup). XL Video is supplying the soft LED drape and interface.

"The pre-production of this tour began when I was out as the LD for Bob Seger, so on days off I designed the ZZ Top tour on WYSIWYG," says Stuba. "Troy Eckerman programmed the show on ESP."
