^^ My band playing live at the cockpit in Leeds, UK supporting 'The Besnard Lakes' a rather cool band from Canada.

(The guitar solo is just at about 2:36, so u can hear the wreck at it's best)

[Big Jim]

James, Getting geared up to start one myself. I hope mine sounds as good as that! Great playing and control of the beast. Jim

[Structo]

Sounds great!

[Cliff Schecht]

Ever heard of playing rhythm?

[JamesHealey]

hahahahahaha I have no other songs that have so much lead work in them but this kinda came out of a jam and well yeah I really should work in some rhythm parts coz it's a bit too much really.. but who cares?

Nice

How did you get the headroom?

Most expresses I have heard fizz out and overdistort.

[M Fowler]

Sounds good did you use an airbrake to be able to mike it like that?

I don't have problems getting head room with an Express just a large enough gig to warrant such a power house of an amp.

[JamesHealey]

500+ Venue, 1x12 Cab, 6V6's.. just a tad over 1/2 volume.

Possibly a tad on the loud side but the sound engineer was cool with it.

It was facing across the stage behind the PA too not firing out into the FOH mix.

Oh, I see. That's great . Good playing.
