USA - Jackson Browne launched his 2008-2009 world tour in support of his first album of new material in six years, Time The Conqueror. For the first time, Browne is using LED lighting on his stage.

Lighting director Dave Davidian put together a rig that includes 20 Elation Impression LED moving heads and 180 American DJ 64B LED Pro par cans. According to Davidian, Browne himself was "pivotal" in the decision to switch to LEDs.

"Jackson was very pro-active in looking for LEDs, because he's a very green-oriented person," said Davidian, who has worked for Browne since 1990. "He felt this would be a way to save power and do the right thing as far as his beliefs were concerned. For myself, I was curious about LEDs too."

Davidian selected products from Elation and its sister company American DJ on the basis of recommendation from his supplier, Bandit Lites "I have a lot of faith in Bandit. They suggested Elation as the way to go, because the products have both economy and integrity built into them," he said.
