Mike Inez (AIC) on Kimmel-mixed drivers, non-vertical stacking, oy vey

[spector_boogie]

The pros with amazingly awesome live tone just don't get it. Does anyone know him personally where we can reach out as a community and get him some help? Before they leave for their next tour I'd like to anyway.

Good thing he is running into the PA. I doubt the audiance is hearing much from his rig, listeners on TV certainly are not.

 

[Dave W]

More importantly, Cantrell cut his hair!

 

[Jaco who?]

Doubt it matters much with all those boring unison lines anyway.

 

[georgestrings]

I dunno - correct me if I'm wrong, but it looked like a pair of SVT-410HLFs side by side, with an SVT810e laying across them - if that's what it was, and they're all hooked up, I'd imagine that could work pretty well for a big stage... Figure the low end and highs from the 410s, and added mids up around ear level from the 810 - I think I'd probably like that...

Me too

All of a sudden he looks like a nice guy. It's hard to watch him play those lines and sing with that short hair. Something just isn't right.

On the first season of True Blood, I thought for a couple episodes that he was playing the Saarsgard character. Then that guy cut his hair and the illusion was destroyed. Now, it look like Cantrell has caught up.

What an awesome band. Personally, setting aside Layne Staley nostalgia, I think they are better now than they have ever been.

 

[fenderhutz]

All for show, last time I checked he uses a Sansamp DI direct to board.

Edit: and using IEM's.

 

[GLEN18INCHSPICA]

I thought "Friends dont let friends get haircuts", that was written on his ABG in their MTV unplugged performance. Jerry still sounds like himself with the short hair, appearence doesnt make the man.

Maybe they secretly hate each other.

Mike Inez blew me off when I friended him on FB, even after he liked something I said, so pffft to him anyway.

He looks like an Eric Northman stunt double now.

 

[Joe Murray]

I'm not trying to be a smart@ss, but what's the point of this thread?
Even if he was running the 8X10 sideways on top of the two 4X10s, what would be the problem?

 

[brothernewt]

I don't know, but at one point he was using custom 18's on the bottom. Could still be. I can't really hear him much on that clip (computer speakers?). Usually a good sound though.

He always did.

Haircuts aside...

What's the problem? On that song he's basically playing along with the rhythm guitar. If he quit playing you would notice that it was gone.

It's called holding down the bottom end.

 

[Chef]

Because "he's doing it wrong?"

I bet he runs what he likes.
That's really all that matters.

Its for stage monitoring, if it's even plugged in (IEM).

FOH is gonna do all the heavy lifting.

Looks like they were borrowing ZZ Top's live rig - the cabinets are probably empty.

Cantrell looks like he is ready for some comfortable khaki pants and Hush Puppy shoes.
They still RAWK.

This is the point so many players here miss because they have never played in a large stage, large PA situation. Anyone who played in the 80's and early 90's would have pointed this out quite readilly. Loud stage volumes are more of a "Today" thing with everybody going compact. One of the reasons that after 14 years of playing professionally in a Metal band, I can still hear better than most of my customers....LOL
