Dropkick Murphys and Rancid Use CHAUVET Fixtures on Joint Tour

On the Dropkick Murphys’ current tour with Rancid, both bands have been using CHAUVET Professional Maverick and Rogue devices, all fixtures supplied by JDI Productions.

The lightshow was designed by Cody James.

“There’s a great amount of energy on this tour,” said James. “Neither band ever takes its foot off the pedal, so our goal is to create a continuous flow of punchy looks for two 90-minute sets.”

The six Maverick MK1 Hybrids in his rig have helped to decorate the stage, even when the sun is still out, as the fixtures can produce light that cuts through the sunshine.

“The Maverick Hybrids are my go-to fixture for this tour,” he said. “I begged for them. Their power is first and foremost what stands out. I can use them as a beam that cuts through the stage at 3 pm, and then as a wash and great back light at 9 pm.”

The rig also includes six custom light carts, which each contain a Maverick MK1 on top and at least one Rogue R1 FX-B positioned at various heights on its side.

“Generally, we position the carts across the upstage deck, making a straight row with the Mavericks about 8-feet high, directly below the video wall,” said James. “The output of the Mavericks certainly stands up to the video wall. The CMY feature of the Mavericks is great, and we’re able to coordinate its colors with the video wall’s output.”

In addition, the Rogue FX-B units on the carts fill out the floor behind the rig’s four set pieces.

“I love the power and punch of the FX-Bs,” said James. “They give me a wide coverage area and create a glowing wash over the bands We’re able to create a lot of immersive looks, which fits what the bands are all about,” said James. “I am really thrilled with this rig, and lucky to be on this tour. Thanks to Derek Iorfida and Freddy Thompson from JDI for giving me this chance and to Bill and Brady from Rainbow Production Services for taking care of things.”
