RE: Live Gig Rig Logistics

        ** yeah. i was in a band where both the guitarist and i brought
stereo rigs (i play bass); i was hauling stereo amp/preamp, two cabinets,
two roland rsp-550s plus two rds-8000s (for looping - - one per channel to
have different loops at opposite sides of the stage) and foot stuff, too.
the vocalist also did some looping and processing. usual set-up time was at
least 30 minutes, more often longer - - for a 45-minute set.

        i called us the band with more gear than sense . . . 

        now it's amp (walter woods) and processing in some small backbacks.
used to do two but now it's up to three (megalomania strikes). need to get 
a
bigger bag. everything (except the amp) is stomp boxes (eh-16 and headrush
for loopage).

        i don't miss stereo, but still have the capability with the woods.
