Had the stack out and about yesterday

My band House Brand had the pleasure of playing a benefit concert yesterday afternoon/early evening. The proceeds going to a local shelter for homeless youth. I'm sure you have Arby's beef sandwich shops down in the U.S. - it was on the deck in front of the local Arby's we played, and we could go as loud as we wanted to compete with a busy road in rush hour.
So, of course I took the HD-130R/210X/210RH stack out, our rhythm guitar player used the RD-50 110 as usual, but we put a 57 on it to lift it just a tad and spread out the sound. Single speaker amps get very directional in an outdoor situation.

The show had to have something for everyone so if you go to https://www.facebook.com/HouseBrandMusic you will see us play Margaritaville - any kids listening would hopefully not be too affected by it.

We are in Canada, so we naturally have to play local music too - the penultimate song of the show being Taking Care of Business, which was captured by a spectator and posted on her FB page:

(the picture quality is not the greatest, but you can sorta hear the guitars a little)

Enjoy!

The dude on the roof that you can see in the video was part of the fundraiser. He's spending three days up there (long weekend here in Canada) and has a bucket on a string you can put money into passing by. Was sorta interesting to have your own dedicated peanut gallery behind you for the show.
