This was a HUGE corporate gig at the Loews Hotel in Phila. The entire room was decorated so that it looked like a ranch. It had one of those electric bulls you can ride on. It had ranch fencing and bales of hey stacked around the room. I took the photo with my camera phone so the quality and detail isn't good, but you get the idea. Funny thing, they wanted R&B and pop music, no country other than Sweet Home Alabama. It was a fun gig, and we dressed in western attire.

@ Ken - right on! I can't wait to hear your thoughts on that cab.

@ Virgil - just slurp. I can only imagine how good that rig sounded, especially with your playing. From the look of the stage, I'm guessing there might've been some great grease happening?

Hey Jerry, the music stand I am using is RAT Jazz stand. I have my book of charts on it, and it holds it perfectly. It folds down like a notebook at the end of the night, and weighs close to nothing. I am surprised Ken doesn't have one.

Sounds cool, Partner! I am fortunate that one of the associations I belong to uses the Lowes hotels for our annual meetings (NYC, Washington, Tucson, Nashville). Always first rate , but expensive :crying:, Yet memorable. I told Mwsoball [Mark] that when I return to Tucson, we'll hook up at the resort and 1st round is on me.
Sounds like "cultured" cowboys if they wanted R&B & POP

Hey Berg fans.... I have a loaner HT112ER that I'm checking out. Very impressive cab. I'm an AE guy, so the super deep, wide, pure, hi fi type vibe of this cab is not my thing particularly. However, it is just SO impressive in the low end... zero compression when slapped, and even and open all the way down to the open B.

It is probably the only single 112 I've experienced (as Jerry... VROOMVROOM has posted), that I would be comfortable doing a reasonably loud gig with.

Here's a quick clip of the cab with my Sadowsky and a few micro heads. Check out the wonderfulness of the Puma500 with this cab at around the one minute mark!

Nice small form factor, although at 43 pounds, it really doesn't feel much lighter than my AE212.
