Kaizers Orchestra Plays Oslo Spektrum Using Clay Paky Alpha fixtures

On April 9 the Norwegian rock band Kaizers Orchestra played a fully booked Oslo Spektrum for an audience of 10,000.

"As Norway's most important venue, selling out Oslo Spektrum is a huge step for any Norwegian band and we were glad to be there to assist Kaizers Orchestra in making it a truly remarkable evening for everyone in the audience," states Rubicon marketing director, Nikolai Perminow.

Rubicon is Norway's leading rental provider of Clay Paky and delivered a range of Clay Paky Alpha Spot 1500 HPE, Alpha Spot 700 HPE and Alpha Wash 700s as moving fixtures for the show -- alongside conventional lighting, rigging, PA and monitoring.

Neil Solheim, Kaizers Orchestra's lighting designer, said, "The Clay Paky Alpha Spot HPE 1500 give me the option to reproduce any fixture I like. If you want it to be a spot with an absurdly wide zoom, then it is just that. A wash? No problem. Beam? Sure, no stress! The Alpha Spot HPE 1500 isn't just a spot, it is any fixture, and I have never before had such a creative playroom. I know I only used 20% of the features, so there is more to come."

"Rubicon is without a doubt the most dedicated partner I have ever worked with. With a thorough focus on quality and wholehearted passion for their work, they made it possible for me to focus solely on perfecting the show, and allowed me to delivery a maximum experience to the audience. This made it one of my best days at work ever," Solheim adds.
