Very cool! Do you happen to know the signal flow of that rack? I'm guessing those Crowns are for power, but is he using the SVT or the Avalon as a pre? Or perhaps both?

Not the biggest fan of the music, but that's pretty cool anyway!

TB inspires comradery.

I played a festival gig this weekend. Too bad about the weather but a good crowd. Going back to the run of the mill day to day life is a bit of a let down. Playing in front of a crowd like that every gig must be truly addictive.

I've never been a fan of the band's music, but it's cool to hear that they're down to earth guys.

If I had the opportunity to play through that rig it would have been epic. I would have played a Charlie Parker tune (Confirmation, Ornithology, Donna Lee, etc...) or Teen Town and given him the skunk eye (maybe even say to him, "what now?"). Dang kids and their rock music.

It's cool that he was down to earth like that.

Freaking sweet! Wish I had the cash around to catch their show here in MN on the 21st, but at least my band is covering a couple of their songs a week later. I bet it sounds better out of his rig, though...hey Johnny, think I could borrow the rig for a club gig? (LOL)
