What's with the yellow stompbox? Any idea what it is?

I see a PODxt LIVE too!

I would say Adrenalinn but I'm not sure

 

[banjoplayer]

very cool, thank you. you´re a real fan, BP

 

[jeffrey]

Good stuff Sterling, thanks.

 

[Rossie]

I would say Adrenalinn but I'm not sure

But aren't Adrenalinn's sides black?

And why would JP use one?

 

[tiffles]

JP played next and is practically playing naked....

His rig looks pretty stripped down as well from what it normally is.

Fab pics BP. Thanks for sharing

 

[RichW]

Great pictures--those guitars sure look pretty. I have to say my GAS is steadily increasing (I think my wallet just winced).

 

[koogie2k]

Awesome pics....sounds like you are having a great time....

 

[SteveB]

Jp did an interview for the Pittsburgh paper ...steveB be lookin for it.

Thanks, Poppa! I'm on the job.. it will be in the Post-Gazette or the Tribune-Review (probably the Trib because that paper is based in the next county over, and that's where the local G3 show will take place).

Egad those F-1's are amazing!

 

[CudBucket]

Too cool! Seeing these BFRs really made me excited
Thank you BP!

What's with the yellow stompbox? Any idea what it is?

I see a PODxt LIVE too!

BP, thanks for the pics! Love seeing John using Mark IVs again. The yellow box could be an MXR chorus?

 

[dfrady]

Wow, looks like you guys had some Fun !! Thanks for sharing the pics with us Poppa !!!

 

[beej]

Some Vegas Set shots

Here are some ones thawt I took with my little point and shoot...I figured out that if I turned off the flash I got some neat photos. I actually like the out of focus one.

JP played the 7 string for the first song and then played the black F-1 the whole set and didnt re tune but once and was on fire. He was pumped and happy and it was a touchy feely love fest afterwards ...Dave was happy, Mike was happy and JP was really happy. He went for it and the crowd went nuts.

John's performance is really distills everything that is right about my job. There are days where the lawyers, accountants, workers compensation, unreasonable customers can jade you....all you have to do is go and see the show and be very happy that we have a team that cares as much as I do. Drew and Dudley rocked on this guitar and should be very proud


I saw Joe's show last night and he is a consumate professional, and great showman and a special talent. He couldn't have been nicer to me and let me raid his backstage cookie stash.
