The Potchefstroom University sport grounds were alive as students built floats for a street parade which was followed by live performances from local band including Karen Zoid, Prime Circle and Die Heuwels Fantasties besides others.
It was the first time that Kevin Rieck of MGG had free rein on the design on the concert. On a permanent outdoor stage, the MGG crew built a box truss (4.5m x 10m) with three mid sections and a back truss for the Martin LC 2140 LED Wall. The show included Robin 100LEDs, Robin 600 LED Washes and Robin 300 Spots and beam work by Clay Paky Sharpys. All lighting and the LED wall were controlled on a grandMA full size and a grandMA ultra-light with VPU Plus.
"The show was pure rock and roll," commented Rieck. "It looked amazing and we were pleased to receive so many compliments."
