The set list corresponded to the original of Johnny Cash when he gave his most legendary concert in 1968 in the Folsom State Prison, California. For Rogge & Derks, supplier of event technologies, the installation works were an interesting experience. It was also an opportunity to deploy the new loudspeaker systems GRAVIS 12 and NOMOS LS from Kling & Freitag.
Top and bass were operated passively by means of the K&F SystemRack on only one channel. Thus, the PA system used only two of the four channels of a SystemRack. The two remaining channels permitted to operate one SCENA 15 monitor each for the musicians.
"The whole setup was operated on only one three-pin power socket, extremely simple and with excellent performance", said Oliver Derks from Rogge & Derks.
Both the band and the management of the prison were highly satisfied with the results. The inmates, warmed up only after a couple of songs.
