Sign in to disble this ad
This is the craziest thread but at the same time I find it frighteningly necesssary.
Anyone know of a beer holder that hooks onto an amp? 
I had a crappy old Peavy head before and it had these really great grooves in the top that prevented beers from moving or falling off even when the bass was pounding.... Wait on second thought it wasn't so crappy after all. Now that I've upgraded to a Genz Benz Head, I've put it in one of the Gator Amp Bags. Awesome head and awesome sound.... just no where for beer.
I know that the beer holders for mic stands exist but is there a beer holder that attaches to a cab?
I know... stupid question, but Beer & Bass is without a doubt the ultimate alliteration! |

Perhaps you could stick a Z-bar between your head and cab and mount a cupholder on that. |

I found it amusing that the last drummer I worked with used an upturned floor mounted cow bell (ie: used a foot operated beater similar to that on a kick drum) as an ash tray. He didn't even use the cow bell but infrequently, it was primarily there as a built in ash tray on his kit.

Fasten two of the above-mentioned bottle-mounts, one on either side of your mic stand just below mic level. Fit bottles full of your favourite whatever into the mounts and aim each straw towards you (same orientation and height as the mic). Even if you don't sing, you can slurp or blow bubbles and be heard by the audience. Enjoy! |

Still have it somewhere, but haven't used it for over 15 years.... |

I play through an '84 Peavey Mark IV head (they are still very popular on eBay) in smaller venues. I mounted a strap to the top of my big rig bi-amped Carvin just for the HeadKeeper! It was a superb invention! | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
