The holiday season saw us performing a couple of annual events. The first show was for the 25th Anniversary Christmas Pageant for the University Baptist Church. We used our 10-Watt white light laser projector, as well as two LaserXpress systems to project beams and holiday graphics. We rung in 2002 with our other event, the City of Miami New Year's Eve celebration at Bayfront Park. The Tower of Light used its 20-Watt Argon laser to project holiday images and a countdown to the New Year onto the face of the Intercontinental Hotel which was simulcast with New York's Times Square! |

Hockey, Hockey, Hockey! October 6 saw us at two season openers. The Florida Panthers professional team featured our "three-headed monster" 20-Watt YAG system shooting up from the ice while our 10-Watt white light laser shot beams down from the catwalk above the ice! In addition, we placed 2 PANI projectors at each end of the rink and shot hockey images down onto the ice. At the same time we did the Miami show, a second crew was in
East Lansing, Michigan for the "World's
Largest Outdoor Hockey Game". It's true, Michigan State
University converted their football stadium into a hockey arena
for October 6th and we provided the entertainment between the
second and third periods!

We have
been working on system installations in
Colombia and on Celebrity
Cruise Line's latest ship, GT Summit. Both
installations feature high powered high light lasers with our
"Tilt-Top" LaserPro projectors.

This
month brought us to the Caribbean again for
two music festivals in Jamaica: Montego Bay's Reggae
Sumfest at the beginning of August and Sashi at the end of the
month. The Sumfest featured two of our 5-Watt white light and ScannerPro laser systems and for the first time, a 15-Watt RED YAG laser system scanning over the audience! |

Lighting Dimensions Magazine featured one
of our club installations - South Beach's Krave.
This is the third
time one of our nightclub laser installations has been featured in
the prestigious magazine's annual club review issue.
A 5-Watt Argon laser with a ScannerPro projector featuring CTI
scanners creates the beams and aerial/graphics for this high
energy dance club. One of our Fourth of July shows saw us in action for the Seminole Indian Tribe. What was unique about this event was the weather. Rain, the dread of all outdoor events was everywhere, but at our 2 square mile event site. Nonetheless, we had to be ready for any sudden power down.

We
travelled to Santo Domingo for the Latin
Music Festival featuring all the hottest Latin music
stars, including Mark Anthony. This event was held in Olympic
Station and 50,000 attended each of the three nights. Our 40-Watt YAG laser, split into 3 FiberPro projectors (our three-headed monster), was positioned on stage for maximum impact. Our 20-Watt argon laser blended with a 5-Watt krypton laser was located at the rear of the stadium and projected graphics images onto the screens at the far left and right of the stage. Power and water are always a challenge, but in this situation the stadium's entire water system had to be shut down to tie the lasers into the system. Sometimes it 's better not to ask why... |

We were all really busy with two highlights being the St. Lucia Jazz festival and the rededication of the Miami Freedom Tower. Shipping and traveling laser gear and people to a Caribbean
Island is always a challenge, but the St.
Lucia Jazz Festival made up for any inconvenience. Our
20-Watt YAG and 5-Watt white light systems added to the magic of
the festival. Plus,
shooting laser
beams against the backdrop of the beautiful Atlantic Ocean made it
unforgettable. |

We had
the honor of participating in the 54th
Annual Horatio Alger Awards meeting in Washington DC.
It is not often that you can make that statement, but that is
exactly the feeling our entire crew felt after the show. The association, which celebrates the "American Dream", (ordinary people starting with nothing, and rising to top) makes scholarship awards to deserving young students. Several of the students' personal stories of serious hardships they had overcome made them perfect recipients for the scholarships. Our high-powered lasers blended expertly with the introduction of the new members and served as the finale for the event with the motivational song "Reach" by Gloria Estefan.

March is
Spring Break time and we jumped in with both feet! We
had two locations covered simultaneously with white light, full
color laser systems, including mirror-bouncing beams, and our
20-Watt YAG laser "three-headed monsters". Panama City Beach and South Padre Island will never be the same as the Spring Breakers danced to the music and our shows. We couldn't believe the wet t-shirt contests in the 40 degree weather. These kids were there to party! As soon as the Spring Break shows ended, we did the Ultra3 2001 Electronic Music Festival in downtown Miami. This annual event, held during the Winter Music Conference, drew over 20,000 fanatics that danced their brains out 12 different stages for over 12 hours. Our lasers were featured at three of the main stages and added to the visual experience. Are you experienced? |

We went
to Club Med for the unveiling
of the latest Skidoo water cycle. Our 10-Watt white light laser
system circled the Skidoo in an amazing laser cone and the logos
and beams bounced throughout the huge tent that held the event.
(This Club Med was in Florida…Darn!) |

A first
for LaserNet, celebrating the Chinese New
Year in Las Vegas. Based on our successful New Year's
Eve show at the Bellagio, we were invited back for the Chinese
celebration. The Chinese version of Frank Sinatra belted out tunes
that everyone enjoyed, of course, we didn't understand a word, but
when you've got rhythm, everything looks good. |

New Year's

How many
times have we heard Also Sprach Zarathustra (2001 theme)? It's not
that we never want to hear it again, but enough already. We did
our New Year's Eve shows for
the real Millennium, AND, got the t-shirt!!! Even though the
public's perception wasn't as strong as New Year's 2000, we still
were quite busy:
