Pulp Summer Festival Shows<br />
Lighting designer Rob Sinclair is using a Jands <strong>Vista</strong> system,<br />
running <strong>the</strong> new <strong>Vista</strong> v2 software, for <strong>the</strong> highly acclaimed<br />
Pulp reunion tour, which sees <strong>the</strong> darlings of Britpop return<br />
in <strong>the</strong>ir glorious original “Different Class” line up from 1995.<br />
So far, <strong>the</strong> European leg of <strong>the</strong> tour<br />
has seen <strong>the</strong> band play a string of<br />
high profile festival slots including <strong>the</strong><br />
Isle of Wight Festival and headlining<br />
Sunday at <strong>the</strong> Wireless Festival in Hyde<br />
Park, London – with UK summer dates<br />
including T in The Park and Reading<br />
/ Leeds Festival – as well as a host of<br />
o<strong>the</strong>r European dates.<br />
Pulp have always retained an art-house<br />
cult following, but <strong>the</strong>re’s been an<br />
incredible reaction and real buzz about<br />
<strong>the</strong> band’s reunion. The shows are all<br />
packed and it’s become a “must see”<br />
event as fans old and new clamour to<br />
enjoy <strong>the</strong>ir stylish poppy mix of everyday<br />
life, art, dreams, subversion and phobias.<br />
Lighting designer Rob Sinclair is a<br />
long term fan of <strong>the</strong> <strong>Vista</strong> platform. He<br />
purchased his first <strong>Vista</strong> S1 control surface<br />
in 2008 shortly after <strong>the</strong> model’s launch,<br />
and now owns three identical systems –<br />
comprising of a laptop running <strong>the</strong> <strong>Vista</strong><br />
software, with a <strong>Vista</strong> S1 and two <strong>Vista</strong> M1<br />
wings – to service his own shows.<br />
Currently <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r two are busy<br />
touring <strong>the</strong> US with chart topping<br />
Adele (operated by Jon Barker) and <strong>the</strong><br />
legendary Peter Gabriel (operated by<br />
Steve Kellaway).<br />
“It’s a leap forwards. Jands has<br />
done a great job and with <strong>Vista</strong> v2<br />
<strong>the</strong>y have a strong basis for plenty<br />
of long term development. It’s<br />
powerful, flexible, highly practical<br />
and enables me to create <strong>the</strong><br />
moods and feel that I want onstage<br />
- which is what is most important<br />
to me.”<br />
- Rob Sinclair<br />
