Tour Director, Elliot Saltzman decided to continue his working relationship with John Wiseman, President of Chaos, for another season of amazing visuals, and Chaos did not disappoint.

“Working with 2 enormous systems, 2 Tour Managers, Patrick Whitley on East & Jeff Boguski on the west, 2 sets of crew and many times a week, 2 shows a day, all at the same time, makes you realize how successful these artists are.” John Wiseman commented. “I’ve been involved with a lot of large productions, and I have to say this is as complex and intense as anything I’ve seen in my 30 years.  This tour was in the top 15 of Pollstar’s Top 50 Chart through December 2009 which is an amazing statistic considering the they were in theaters just 5 years ago”.

Chaos provided each system/coast with the following: 8 Truss Facia, a custom frame made up of 7 tiles of 18.75mm Winvision, along with 8x 1 meter Versa Tubes and 2x ½ meter Versa Tubes.
