| D'OH!! Busted!!  I seem to remember Tommy Lee saying that Motley did something like that back in the early days. They made fake amps to stack up on stage. Still funny though.

| Why don't bands just use real amps? Is there a sound ordinance or something? |

That many real cabinets would be A- very expensive on several levels and B- way too loud if you actually used them all. Back in the old days, it would take that many cabinets to fill an arena with sound and that look became part of Rock And Roll lore...it's all for show.
With the intricate PA systems we have these days, bands don't even need amps at all....but how would an empty stage look? Not very Rock And Roll... |

Exactly. I remember way back when, the guitarist for One Bad Pig used to mic a little practice combo amp live...it always looked kinda funny in pics...  |

| Yeah, they're good. I'm looking at getting one of those Ritchie Blackmore signature amps. It's pretty versatile. |

I hope no one took me seriously, it was a joke. I have met some people who would totally buy the whole fake wall of amps and they would be offended to discover it wasn't real. |
