Votown All-Stars fundraise with Electro-Voice
A special event took place in Volendam, Holland when the Votown All-Stars held a fundraising concert to support Volendam’s football club, FC Volendam, at Volendam Stadion on June 21, 2009.
The Votown All-Stars comprise popular artists Jan Smit, Nick & Simon, and 3JS, who decided to support FC Volendam as their main sponsor. This unique sponsorship resulted in a huge concert, and 100 percent of the fundraising revenues from the event were given to FC Volendam.
Rental company Triple Showtechniek used an Electro-Voice X-Line system and their Midas XL8 and PRO6 consoles to facilitate the concert. The wide array of EV, Midas, and Klark Teknik equipment at the event helped ensure that the sound stayed loud, clean, and intelligible in each and every corner of the stadium. Marc Pardon, who manned FOH during the concert, was very pleased with the power and headroom available through the EV X-Line system, which made mixing this stadium gig for him – according to a big smile – a very pleasant ride.
