There actually is mikes on some of the speakers and on Wolfies too.

I don't think all of those back line cabinets even are on. The PA does most the work. In fact the amp Eddie is actually using might even be down in the guitar pit with his rack gear. Those amps and speakers usually are just used as props. Some of them might be used but are probably driven by a power amp off stage.

I've been sifting through a few posts here. Nitro, I KNEW you were a George Carlin fan.

My fave, the difference between Football and Baseball. Cheers Mate.

I bought my own copy of Class Clown with my own lawn mowing money. The difference between Football and Baseball is a classic. I'm also notorious for packing too much stuff when I travel so that observation is another good one. It's all about finding a place for your stuff.

I wonder if Ed is still using a Palmer speaker simulator. You can run direct to the board but I think he runs a effects loop with it instead and mikes his speakers and then sends the microphone feed to the mixing board. He used to run one head and two 2x12's for AL. I guess it was loud as hell where Al was sitting . I have a feeling they have tamed that down now. Then Ed would run one cabinet wet and two dry if I remember right. He's got more of a traditional pedal board now so things might be a tad different now.

Sound engineers always like to get all the tone hashed out into a line level signal and then run the speakers with clean power amps.

On some of those live vids that are shot from the sides nothing on the back of Ed's cabs and heads are plugged into anything. No cables anywhere...

I haven't seen any footage of Dave giving shit to the lighting guys. Anyone see it yet?

I have it. Just haven't uploaded it yet

If I remember right in EVH's gear there was a Palmer PDI-03 used ONLY as a signal splitter.

Dry Head -> Palmer Speaker Thru -> 1 Dry Cabinet and in parallel the Palmer feeds with its line out(s) rack effects -> Stereo Power Amp -> 2 Wet Cabinets.

All 3 Cabinets miked.
