well it was good to see everyone again and some for the first time. and some nice gear, the JSX and Bobner sounded nice, and Robs Mesa drowned out everything :twisted:

GASsing for some FuzzieBro now 8)

oh, and SlashEds Ash Kelly ... Damn nice, the pics do it no justice 8)
Hurdy Gurdy.... some how... and I'm not entirely certain how mind you, an instrument that sounds like someone has shoved a nest of angry hornets into a goose with a kazoo bill and is randomly slapping the poor creature with an accordion.... Sounds amazing.

Haha I never made it past about 2 on the master volume. It just has HUGE midrange. It will slay in ANY live situation, you never get lost in the mix with that thing.

Must resist Fuzziebro GAS !

Your pedalboard looked sooo evl Jodie. Coffin case? Tu Meke ! :lol:

Yeah the Kelly was mean ! looks amazing in the flesh ! bigger than I thought too. Very cool. The Carvin V3 was cool too.

Sorry I missed it dudes. I played two church services today and my son was unwell, and I didn't feel right about leaving them alone all day.
However music was great in both services.

I won't miss the next one! I had some cool stuff to bring too like a recently restored tape echo and my completed rig.

well the board was the lid for the case i was building for the Ironbird, but then got too many pedals for the breifcase so used it for the pedals, i just have to finish painting the top for it and put some clips on it as a lid

You got to admit though ... Its a good loud 8)

Just got back to the bay, and kicking myself again for not taking any photos.. i seem to make a habit of taking a camera to the fests and not using it :?

And once again, ran out of time to check out most things and meet/introduce properly to most people. (Vince, were you the one asking me questions about the Bogner before i left?.. sorry, forgot to ask)
Thanks to Gelato for lugging the JSX down with him.. should really have tried that into a quad as well if i had been thinking/had more time.

thanks to Rob for giving us the 'Jerry Cantrell' goosebumps when plugged into the Shiva :lol:

No, but I loved the look of that goldtop semiacoustic with the zebra humbuckers. Very nice amp though. I was the guy with the Korg MS20 tee shirt.

Cheers all- had a great time.

Loved the Bogner.

Loved the Ash Kelly.

Loved my Savoy's little blonde sister (shhh!)

Loved the orange Reverend.

Loved the Peavy classics.

Loved the Revelation.

Loved the cabs.

I really want to try some different speakers with my new amp next time plus it'd be great to get my hands on a G2D custom to fiddle with.
