five years, the case was resolved in favor of Vari*Lite. Syncrolite continued operations, and has provided systems for an array of events, including events such as the 2012 Olympics in London; the 75th anniversary of the Golden Gate Bridge; Super Bowl XLV and the 2014 NCAA Final Four at AT&T Stadium; the three-day March Madness Music Festival at Reunion Park in downtown Dallas; the Houston Rodeo; the 30th anniversary of Wrestlemania at the New Orleans Superdome and a Red Bull "Crashed Ice" event in Quebec City. Other endeavors Through a division of Showco, Calmes began managing musical artists in 1970. Among the acts he was responsible for included Rock and Roll Hall of Fame member Freddie King (whom Calmes got signed to Leon Russell's Shelter Records); Bloodrock and John Nitzinger, as well as Jim Rutledge, amassing what he says are "seven or eight gold records." Calmes also produced a variety of film and live television projects, including a global satellite broadcast of the Who in 1982 (later released as the documentary The Who Rocks America) for 20th Century Fox and HBO, as well as the 1988 presidential debates for CSN. Calmes also co-produced the 1978 Rolling Stones concert film Some Girls: Live in Texas '78.

The Chickenhawks released five albums, including three live albums (1999's Live, 2002's Live from the Gypsy Tea Room and 2007's Louisiana Live) and two studio albums (1999's Chickenhawks and 2004's Deep in the Heart). Patents Calmes earned two United States patents ( and ) for a "method and apparatus for a scrollable modifier for a light fixture" and a "pattern generator for a light fixture," respectively.

The patents he held as part of Showco were sold when he left the company, as part of the corporation's intellectual property, although Calmes did keep a percentage of the patent. The abstract for the "pattern generator for a light fixture" reads: An apparatus includes a first flexible material that has a first area with a first texture that produces a first predetermined amount of diffusion of a beam of light, where the first texture produces at least some diffusion in the beam of light. The apparatus also includes a second flexible
