Claypaky Sharpy Plus Lights Up Fito Páez Anniversary Tour in Buenos Aires

"The Sharpy Plus stands out for its versatility, colorimetry, motorization, and aperture range. It produces a beam or spot that facilitates multiple uses making them a very interesting tool to operate," says Poblete.

Argentine rock and pop musician Fito Páez continues his El amor 30 años después del amor tour last year with a December 16 concert at the Estadio UNO - Estadio Jorge Luis Hirschi in Buenos Aires where 54 Claypaky Sharpy Plus fixtures enhanced the energy on stage.

The tour marked the 30th anniversary of Páez's breakout album, El amor despues del amor, the pinnacle of his commercial success. In 1992, the artist sold more than 750,000 copies of the album and played sold-out concert dates. Thirty years later he drew sell-out crowds to a commemorative tour from Gonna Go! Producciones that began in 2022. In the tour's first year Páez played shows in South America and the US; last year he expanded the tour to include additional South American countries as well as Canada and Europe.

Lighting designer Gaspar Potocnik selected a large complement of Claypaky Sharpy Plus fixtures from rental house Técnica Vidal to enhance the dynamic shows that thrilled fans.

"The Sharpy Plus stands out for its versatility, colorimetry, motorization, and aperture range. It produces a beam or spot that facilitates multiple uses making them a very interesting tool to operate," says Agustín "Coqui" Poblete, lighting technician at Técnica Vidal. The company also furnished the local lighting crew, which included Poblete, Gustavo Porollan, Daniel Toledo, José Gutiérrez, and Darío Gil.

Macaio Argentina is the exclusive distributor of Claypaky lighting in Argentina. Mauricio Brando is Claypaky's area sales manager for Latin America.
