Sweet!! I just bookmarked it, as I haven't been there.. Montreal is only a little more than 2 hours away for me, but most shows I go to are in the Albany, NY area, or VT/NH/Boston. . I used to love Montreal and really should start getting there more often. Glad you loved the show and venue
I did my own many years back. Mine started getting untight/farty on the lo-end and I opened it up and found a leaky filter cap. . I bought replacements, soldered them in (easy job and I'm no tech) and it sounded great again. I didn't care about the value, as it needed them replaced. Mine...
I had them from when they first came out. I thought my first batch were just better sounding , and then gradually accumulated more of them and they were brighter. I still have just a couple but don't use them a lot. What I found is they break in and sound nicer and nicer. I like my...
Nice! I didn't go see the Best of all Worlds show, but definitely couldn't resist the Vai/Satch. Gonna see Vai with the King Crimson/Beat show as well. I will say it'd been almost 30 years since I had seen Satriani in concert and he's even older than me and he absolutely kicked ass!
I just posted a pic from the Satch/Vai show I saw in March.. I see a bunch of great shows, but suck at taking pics! I do get ok video snippets though :)
I'm not sure if anyone else here saw the SATCH and VAI concert but I got lucky in March and saw it at Pompano Beach , FLA. Satch used 2 3rd Power amps and 1 Marshall, and he sounded great. I was sitting about 30 feet in front of him so got the sound from the 3 4x12's and a bit from the PA...
Sounds great man (To me!) . . I have the Cougar 50 1x12 combo since it was released and have no complaints at all. Both channels sound better than many expensive amps, and unique to me. I also have a Marshall 4x12 that has pretty similar grillcloth. ha
I missed this tour, but I've seen Big Wreck in concert 3 times now. . Once in Watertown, NY, 2nd time in Boston, 3rd time in Albany, NY. . Ian used to use the Bones and a Suhr od100 or pt100 (can't remember now which Suhr) but the last 2 times he used the Suhr Pt100 and Suhr Hedgehog, and he...
I'm seeing them at the end of October in Boston . . . I saw them about 5 years ago in Boston with Chon, and every single minute of the show I was blown away by both bands. Can't wait. .. I have a pretty broad taste in music. .Last concert I went to a few days ago was MOE. and a bunch of...
I'm a musician :) I loved my hotwheels as a little kid though, but nope, no racing in my blood lol... .Next year I know if going to Montreal early summer look at ALL scheduled events for the days if I'm planning on actually driving anywhere on time lol
I'm confused by this thread, but I just got back from MOntreal. We went for the Cure concert Friday night and I'd never heard of the Grand Prix. . Well between 300,000 extra people in the city, road construction, and rain, it was an interesting trip where every 10 miles took an hour, but at...
Yes David Woodhouse. I still have 2 Barons. 1 was a Bogner XTC -inspired 1-off. .. I bought that from Greg Tomao from Tomato Farm Studios (Totally testing my memory) , and my other Baron is a KT88 k88 or k2 or whatever it's called. I'm spoiled. I have about 25 awesome amps and the Barons are...
Ha, I'm 62 . . I saw Polyphia and Chon at the Paradise Club in Boston 5-6 years ago and it was 1 of the best shows I've seen out of many hundreds. Great great musicians in both bands, and surely styles we didn't grow up on, but that's what makes it fun and interesting

I sold my Morin preamp to someone on this forum many years back after owning it for a long time. It was great, and the guy who bought it was pretty much in heaven. I still have a Morin-modded JMP and that's not going anywhere.
