When the group, pioneers of Latin pop rock and recipients of a number of Grammys, play the four German concerts in June, two grandMA lighting consoles will control the largely Vari-Lite-dominated rig. We have already renamed them ‘grandMANÁ’, said Sandro Pujia, lighting designer for the tour. In 1998 Carlos Santana asked Maná to play three songs for his comeback album ‘Supernatural’ - and in September 2003 they will embark on a joint tour.
