Volbeat Concert Setlist at Trondheim Rocks 2018 on June 2, 2018

The systems used 69 Sentinel10 and one Sentinel3 amplified loudspeaker controllers, totaling 280 channels of processed amplification.

Sound for the event was supplied by , a company with many years experience of supplying the technical production for festivals and high profile international artists.

It meant we had more capacity in the roof for lighting, video and sets, which was very important at this festival. They are inspired by classic rock and roll artists such as Elvis Presley and Johnny Cash, as well as modern hard rock, thrash metal, heavy metal, alternative rock and hardcore punk groups.
