CAPE TOWN, South Africa — Gearhouse South Africa supplied audio gear and crew for Rod Stewart’s recent South African tour, plus staging for the Cape Town and Durban stadium shows. 

The company supplied racks and stacks for the tour, with the complete FOH and monitor setups supplied by Major Tom from the UK, whose Lars Brogaard is also the FOH engineer for Stewart.

Revil Baselga let the Gearhouse audio team. The L-ACOUSTICS V-DOSC rig varied in size, with Newlands being the largest venue, for which they used 48 V-DOSC elements, 15 a side for the main hangs with two outer hangs of 10 a side, plus three delays, two of dVDOSC and one of Kudo.

For the Dome, it was configured as 12 VDOSC a side with Kudo outer hangs and dVDOSC downfills, infills and outfills—all driven by a networked LA8 amplifier system.
