Italy - Kool and the Gang's show in Turin took place at the Olympic Sports Arena with Lombardi Service, who are presently on the road with Gigi D'Alessio, providing an Adamson Yaxis system for the event. Toni Soddu, Gigi D'Alessio's new FOH engineer, was there as the stage manager and John Ryan, CHIC FOH, did the shooter design and gave Luca Libraro a hand with the system setup.A total of 24 Y10's with 12 Y10 Subs were used. John Ryan calculated the shoot by fixing the maximum distance, right behind his head before the glass that separates the first seats from the hockey field. "I had practically no reflection from the empty Plexiglas seats and flat surfaces. The sound was evenly distributed throughout the floor," he says.
