Widespread Panic Celebrates 25th Anniversary Tour with Bandit Lites Widespread Panic celebrated its 25th this fall with a jaunt around the US, with Bandit Lites supplying the lighting. Designer Paul Hoffman was in charge of the tour's look. Tour manager Steve Lopez, production manager Mike Smith, and Bandit San Francisco GM Dizzy Gosnell worked together to support the tour along the way. Bandit staff Shawn Beaulieu, Wayne Lotoza, and Dave Langford keep the show rolling each night. The design featured arches of truss in a staggered waterfall, loaded with 100 GRNLite LED PARs. The lighting rig utilized Martin Professional MAC IIIs, a new tool for him. He also incorporated Philips Vari*Lite V 3000 Spots, GLP impressions, and grandMA consoles; as well as the new, fully programmable Bandit 5x5 blinders. Unlike other fixtures, these new units are easily programmable with any pattern you can conceive, the company says. ![](/std_images/blank.gif)
