Ending their 2013 ‘El Objeto’ tour in style,
well-known alternative rock Mexican band Café Tacuba played their last show of
the year at the Palacio de los Deportes arena in Mexico City … marking the
debut of the 14 brand new Robe ROBIN Pointes recently purchased by local rental
company, Meridian Pro S.A de C.V.
The Pointes were located right behind the band forming
a line upstage.
The band’s Producer Sergio Serrano – who also has his
own lighting and video company, LED Project, in the same city – commented that
they are always looking out for the newest products that will keep the company
at the forefront of the latest technologies.
“I saw the Pointe and proposed we used these for the
last show to the band’s LD Germán “Tiffy” Castellanos, who agreed and also
really liked them. It’s a fixture far better than others available on the market … and
that’s what we always look for – something that is different as well as the
best. We’re already thinking of using Pointes for Café Tacuba’s next tour which
is scheduled to begin in June,” he said.
In fact, Sergio is a Production Manager for several
music groups and he and his company provide lighting design and equipment for
numerous artists.
“I always go to USA to purchase fixtures, but the
people at Vari Internacional (Robe’s Mexican distributor) have treated me so
well that I’m thinking about buying in Mexico for the first time! I’m very
happy and I hope I’ll be able to use the Pointes at some major events”, he added.
Café Tacuba’s 2013 tour visited most Latin American
countries including Mexico, Colombia, Peru, Bolivia, Argentina and Chile among
others … as well as USA and Spain.
