UK - Christopher Bushell has chosen to use a Diamond 4 Avolites console from Neg Earth for the Hoosiers Tour 2008. Their UK number 1 album The Trick to Life which quickly became double platinum was released in October last year and is now being played live in UK and France.

Bushell comments: "After trying most consoles, I always go back to Diamond 4. I like to have everything laid out and palletted-up in front of me so it's all easy to grab. The layout of menus, shapes and playback editing is the best with Avolites."

Amongst many dates and different venues, Bushell and The Hoosiers were at London's Brixton Academy for a Halloween gig. The Knight of Illumination nominated lighting designer created an intimate and cheerful atmosphere. A total of 77 Movers and LED blinders were required for the show.

Bushell used the new iPix BB7's as back light on floor and on truss and says: "Itt gives off a solid bright beam with a retro look to the actual fixture.

In addition to The Hoosiers, Bushell has successfully worked with Amy Winehouse for the last two years, along with American Rejects, Erasure, Monster Magnet, Corinne Bailey Rae and Goldie Lookin Chain and most recently Gabriella Cilmi.
