Man, I hope that if I ever get married, I can enjoy it like you have. Cuz, let's face it, if you're not the mother of bride or groom, a traditional ceremony is LOATHSOME.

Totally!!! Wedding parties tend to be boring, we wanted to do something we both enjoyed, and we made it!!

Thanks a lot for all your messages!! Those dang floorwarts failed on me on that gig (bad cable), so I had to play directly to the amp; next day in another gig I only played with 5 of'em and returned to a "less is more" approach.

Pedal board?

Congrats on the nuptials!

Best of luck.

My .02 for both of the happy couple: Have fun, always be patient, be willing to adapt, learn that anger/sarcasm/etc. add nothing to the logic of your argument, be able to walk away from an argument and address the issue later when everyone is calm, focus on the positives of your lives, speak in terms of facts, not gossip, don't deal in drama, and most importantly: seriously consider your bride may be correct.

Congratulations, and well done on the wedding gig.

We're planning on doing the same for ours once the traditional part of the ceremony is over and the grown-ups have gone to bed. Sabbath covers in top hat and tails, here we come!
