We had a Bogen with a pair of EL-84s and a pair of Bandmaster cabs. Shure 55 and two or three SM-57. Oh and an EV 60? What was it, every high school auditorium had them. Anyway, my voice was so good it just didn't matter. Dana check your PM.

Back in the early seventies we didn't have all of the equipment available to us that we have now. These young whipper-snappers today don't know how good they have it when it comes to sound reinforcement. We were lucky to have a old Shure Vocal master 6 channel head for just vocals and a couple of speaker columns. The drums and guitars were'nt miked through the PA system. No Snakes, Effects racks full of processors and such. So there was no using a 20 watt amp and miking it through your 5000 watt PA. We always wanted to save up for a couple of Altec Voice of the Theater cabs but ended up building our own snake and tri-amped PA system from scratch. You needed a 100 watt amp to get loud. Like I said, the good ole days.
