Re: Peter Leinhos etc.



HA HA! I'm sure somebody somewhere has banks of deep cycle marine 
batteries and some kind of charging system (solar or pedal) hooked up to a 
PA & Looping stuff -But hey, I think we already have enough gear to haul 
around to shows already without all that!! Seriously though, I have been 
wanting to get one of those VOX DA5 battery powered amps that Bill was 
talking about in that "small battery powered amp" thread a while ago-It 
would be fun to busk somewhere (or play in the woods) and loop sometime.
