NEXO rental partners recently came to the rescue following a devastating fire at Serenityaudio.
When Serenityaudio’s Danny Kitainik finished prepping his NEXO inventory on July 2 for a full weekend of gigs around his base in Chippenham, UK, he could have loaded the truck that evening. However, it had been a busy day and the team was well ahead of schedule, so it was decided that the load up could wait until tomorrow.
Within half an hour of arriving home that evening, Kitainik received a call that a fire had broken out in the garage premises next door and spread quickly to his unit. His NEXO inventory was a total loss.
“We had bookings for a celebrity cricket match, quickly followed by Biddstock Festival on the weekend and my first thought was that I can’t let my clients down” reported Kitainik . “But with less than two days before the first event, things were looking difficult.”
At this point, a number of NEXO rental partners came to his aid. Chris Hooke at Swansea-based Total Sound Solutions heard about Kitainik’s dilemma and spread the news.
“Within 24 hours I had nearly all the NEXO gear I needed from Chris, with NEXO monitors from John Tinline at Encore Sound,” said Kitainik. “I didn’t even have to go and collect anything. And I got offers of help from Robert Nisbet at EPS and others that I didn’t need to call on, but I’m very grateful for, nonetheless.
“All the jobs went perfectly. Chris and the wider NEXO rental community really came through for us and we’re humbled by the offers of help and support from our network of friends and peers. We couldn’t have done it without them.”
