| 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 album was released in October 07 and is now being played live in UK and France. Chris confesses ‘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, Chris and The Hoosiers were in London
(Brixton Academy) on the 27th October. The 4921 capacity venue, one of the UK capital’s best live venues, welcomed the fans who were asked to dress up for the gig. The Hoosiers has proved that they still have a great sense of humor by setting up a spooky Charles Dickens novel inspired stage with bats flying on the ceiling and Oompa-Loompas musicians. |

| The Knight of Illumination nominated Lighting Designer has created an intimate
and cheerful atmosphere catching the audience’s attention. A total of 77 Movers and LEDs blinders were required for the show. Chris used the new iPix BB7’s as back light on floor and on truss and declares it ‘gives off a solid bright beam with a retro look to the actual fixture’. He adds ‘There were a lot of Satellites and Pixel Line to up light all the set and backdrop. All to enhance the cut-out silhouette look of the show’. |

| In addition to The Hoosiers, Chris 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. | |||||||
