That's pretty cool.
I got mine at Target for about $20 bucks. the cool thing about the micro is that it's so small, it's really easy to find a bag for it! you can actually find a real cool case around the games section, or the photo stuff. I should have gotten one like yours. I would love to see the faces of the guys on the gig! lol

I remember when I was about 16 and had to get 4 of my friends to help take my amp on the bass. It was a fender bassman I think... and a 15" speaker cab. that stuff was so incredibly heavy an it only puts out about 100 watts! doesn't even sound that good either! we are living the good days now! :-)

I went to Walmart last night and found a Case Logic bag designed for portable DVD players. Nicely padded, with a velcro strap in the main part to hold the amp in place. Plus...another compartment that holds the power cord and speaker cable. I can sneak in a little tuner and its cable, too.

Boring but functional...$15.

You don't have to contend with the mean streets of Madison. I was very careful to run my choice past the ultimate arbiter of style -- my daughter. My Pretty Pony, Hanna Montana, or anything vaguely pink, would have gotten me in deep trouble. For the record, Sponge Bob lunch bag is purple, not pink.

Thought I'd share my solution for a case with yall.
Has room for speaker and power cables in the outside pocket. Toss it in my shoulder bag and I'm off!

That is a pretty good option, although the micro is so small and light that is not very hard to find a carrying case for it. I remember looking for something at Target and I actually found a few options very quickly. In the electronics department you'll find quite a few options.
thanks for sharing.
