Be glad there wasn't a Fender Rhodes or a Yamaha CP70 involved, it seemed that for a while i couldn't do a tour that didn't have one of these involved.

my worst load in was in Quebec City in the rain to the 3rd floor on a wobbly fire escape, one of the only load ins i've done that sucks more than Gabes Oasis or Logan Square Auditorium.

Recently i've been downsizing incredibly but just went back to a 4x12, i'm sort of dreading the load in/outs once we start playing out but i have to say a Sunn 200s through a 4x12 is worth the cruddy lifting (for now).

i was in a band at one point who had 2- 4x12's 2-2x15's 2- heavy ass synth roadcases, 2- marshall heads, 1- SVT head 2- 4piece drum kits and a pioneer rt-707 2 track reel to reel and an effectron in a 6 space rack that weighed more than the SVT. I saw LOW play while i was in that band and they were doing 2-champs, a b-15n, floor tom and snare, i was jealous, one of these days i'll be in a band with my 10watt magnatone or my b-15n and i'll be happy.
