USA - Thunder Audio is putting its recently purchased MILO curvilinear array system to work on Robert Plant's 22-date summer US tour. According to Thunder vice-president Paul Owen, 34 MILO cabinets will be employed to fill the houses on the tour, which kicks off on June 15 in Providence, Rhode Island. Founded more than 25 years ago, Thunder Audio is well-known for servicing heavy rock clients such as Metallica and Slipknot, but actually has a diverse clientele that includes the Detroit Symphony.

"I got to use the MILO system with Metallica when we were in Iceland," Owen recounts. "We were coming off of two years of touring with them where we saw just about every kind of system available on the European festival circuit. Now, I take (Metallica FOH engineer) Big Mick's opinion on a system more than anyone else's, having known him for twenty-five years. After using MILO in Iceland, Mick said: 'This just beats all of them hands-down."
