Greg Mahler served as the FOH/system tech for the six-week North American tour, which utilised a PA comprised of a dozen V-Dosc plus three dV-Dosc down-fills hung per side. Three additional dV-Dosc were flown on the downstage lighting truss for centre-fill.
With most of the venues on this particular trek being outdoor amphitheaters, six-box Kudo arrays were also flown on either side of the stage to address the far left and right seating areas. "We also occasionally used Kudo for ground-stack and in situations where weight was an issue," notes Mahler.
Although Paramore rely on in-ear monitors, a total of ten L-acoustics 115XT HiQ wedges were positioned on stage for the support bands, as were a pair of Arcs cabinets for side-fill.
