ATLAS SOUND MIC STANDS CHOSEN BY ROCK STARS FOR THEIR ABILITY TO WITHSTAND TORTURE TESTS

(PHOENIX, AZ, USA)—Atlas Sound is proud to announce that its MS-10C mic stands have proven their durability withstanding the tests of many torturous rock and roll stars like the new alternative music group squint. Squint, like many other bands, expect to be able to throw, kick and ravage their microphone stands during a stage show without having to worry about having to replace them for the next.

For the members of squint, Atlas MS-10C stands are just what the doctor ordered. With their vivacious stage shows and what can be best termed as frontman Dane Adrian’s “microphone stand dance,” the members of squint needed something that could withstand any torture test they put it through. Adrian says that the reason Atlas Sound is the only mic stand they’ll use is simply because, among other things, the stands “survive.”

The MS-10C all-purpose chrome finished stands are top-notch, and long-lasting stands that feature durable tubing, the famous Atlas Sound® wearproof clutch, and a 10" diameter die cast circular base. The three-piece clutch provides positive locking control and is able to withstand years of stage and studio handling, even under the toughest conditions. Throw ‘em, kick ‘em, grab ‘em-- these stands can take a beating and will last as long as you do.

Now that squint is equipped with a full fleet of Atlas mic stands, members Dane Adrian, Matt Fredrickson and Tote are ready to rock. “Playing live is one of the most exhilarating experiences I’ve ever had,” Dane says. “We have destroyed so many mic stands in the past because we kick and throw them around so much. Atlas mic stands are the only ones we’ve found that can survive that kind of treatment. That’s why we’ll never use anything else.”
