USA - Country music celebrated its annual CMA Music Fest in Nashville, Tennessee with the largest lighting package ever assembled for this event. Headed by Ted Wells and Mark Carver from Full Flood, Bandit Lites was once again selected as the vendor for what is billed as 'Country Music's biggest party'. Bandit worked hand in hand with Carver, Wells and Production Manager Chuck Young on what was deemed the most successful show to date with America's premier country talents performing to record crowds.

Bandit's Vice President Mike Golden said "Working with the event production staff is a sincere pleasure and makes this event a yearly favorite for all at Bandit".

Four Semi's of Bandit equipment were delivered to this project and a partial list of the equipment provided includes 84 Mac 2K Wash fixtures, 80 Mac 2K Profiles, 72 Mac 600s, 40 Mac 300s, six eight-Lamp bars, six Lycian 1271s, six 3kW Gladiator followspots, 68 motors and eight circle trusses. There were two stages with duplicate systems so the talent and the show never stopped. The event was held in the Titans Football Stadium with crowd numbers exceeding 200,000 for the four days. Mike Frogge served as the Bandit crew chief with Don Lockridge heading up project management and additionally Bandit supplied six technicians for the run of the project.
