Outline - always on the ball

Britannia Row and Robert Lawrence keep American football fans partying with Italian audio systems

London, Wembley Stadium (Oct. 25^th 2010) – The event was the USA coming to London in the shape of total American indulgence and razzmatazz - yes - American football.
A sport that’s not just tough, but combines a good day out with a full day’s entertainment. October 25^th 2010 saw the San Francisco 49ers taking on the Denver Broncos. To make this extravaganza work, two production companies were engaged to provide sound for the 83,000 revellers.

 Britannia Row Productions covered pitch-side entertainment with 14 individual stacks of Outline’s Butterfly Line Array consisting of 4 x CDH 483 hi-packs and 1 x Subtech sub bass powered by T9 amplifiers strategically placed on the pitch’s perimeter.

 A further two arrays were deployed for the tailgate stage placed at one end of the pitch for pre-match entertainment. This system consisted of two arrays of 8 CDH  483s and 4 x Subtechs either side.

 Pre-match entertainment was provided by New Jersey rockers My Chemical Romance, closely followed by Blues legend Jeff Beck, who played the UK’s national anthem in his own inimitable style.

 Michelle Williams of Destiny’s Child then took to the stage and performed the US national anthem “The Star-Spangled banner”.

 After the match, the party for VIPs moved up to the fifth level of Wembley Stadium, where Robert Lawrence Creative Solutions built a stage and backdrop for the NFL/Virgin Atlantic event.

 Audio supplied by Robert Lawrence Creative Solutions - a long-time fan and deployer of Outline systems - consisted of Doppia 9075 point source cabinets and Subtechs powered by T7 amplifiers.

 Robert Lawrence Creative Solutions also covered all the outside entertainment, with many marquees and outside stages covered by Outline’s DVS series, LAB15s and Kangaroo systems. All in all, Outline had it covered!

 The match ended with the San Francisco 49ers beating the Denver Broncos 24-16.
