Kaizers Orchestra is recognized as one of Norway’s most prominent rock bands and best live acts. On Saturday the 9th of April, the band played the concert of their lifetime in a fully booked Oslo Spektrum. An audience of 10,000 spectators got to experience a spectacular show and Kaizers Orchestra at their very best.
“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’s 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 was thrilled with the choice of fixtures. “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 summarizes.
