USA / Canada - Rod Stewart has launched a major tour of arenas throughout North America, and will be touring with a Meyer Sound system based on arrays totalling 52 MILO high-power curvilinear loudspeakers. Lars Brogaard is at the helm of the sound rig, serving as both FOH engineer and production manager for Stewart's first major North American tour in three years. Sound Image of Escondido, California is providing the sound system.

The MILO arrays are supplemented by 11 UPA-1P compact wide-coverage loudspeakers for front fill, while two LD-3 compensating line drivers provide corrective equalization for low-frequency buildup inherent in line arrays and for atmospheric conditions.

Stewart's From Maggie May to The Great American Songbook tour kicked off at Office Depot Center in Sunrise, Florida on 6 February and travels around the continent until finishing up back in the Deep South at the Birmingham Jefferson Convention Complex Arena in Birmingham, Alabama on 24 April. The tour is currently scheduled for 44 dates, but more are being added.
