Missed Robben Ford and 102 last night in SoCal

Post by ijedouglas »

I am kicking myself today :cry:

Robben Ford played a concert last night at our lake community which is free to residents. We were at the lake during the day and saw/heard the soundcheck but didn't realize he was playing (we also had guests over). I have never seen RF live and thought even if he came over to the states he isn't playing 102... boy was I wrong.

I was going to remind you where he is from but then I remember you told me he lives in France, I think.

I saw that. Can't make out if the super is plugged in. No mic either. Maybe a back up?

Edit: plugged in but no mic

I watched the video. Sounds like a couple of the tunes could be through the Super. Robben was born in Woodlake which is up north in the San Joaquin valley.

You think? I don't see a mic on it unless he has a head-switcher to the cab?

Looks like he's just using pedals through the clean Dumble and Fender amps and yet, the overdrive tone is the old, iconic one. :mrgreen:
