Know what would be WAY better? A fucking wall of strippers farting smoke.

Stripper smoke farts FTW!

AAAAAAAAANNNNNND SIGG'D!

That doesn't count though. One thing we DO know is "they" don't do it for looks!

That's for fucking sure. I love how polite the warnings are. It's like "Hey, sound guy, we're FAR more important than you, so we're gonna be really loud, and you'll live with it and just turn up the vocals to match, mkay?"

Back in the 80s there was a house band at a big local club here that had the wall of fake speaker cabs. Looked pretty cheesy, even for the 80s.

i read somewhere that zztop's bill gibbons wanted to stack up 1000 or more of those battery powered little smokey amps to play through on stage. it probably never happened, but i always thought it was kind of a cool billy idea.

sometimes it's just the musicians are tiny

And sometimes the wall of speakers is very real and fully functional.

Brad Paisley generally uses MAZ 18 & MAZ 38's which are what those (probably) ghost amps are.

Brad Paisley is an unreal guitar player, and his tone is impeccable.

i don't care for his tunes.
