Not only to the ceiling, but across the stage, with only a gap to Corky Laing's drum raiser. To either side of it.
Steve Knight was stage right, with all of his keyboards. Two Marshall 100 stacks, and two Leslie cabs.

Felix personally knew the Sunn brothers. Who knows what was really in Mountain's Sunn heads.

Well, one of the brothers was the bassist for The Kingsmen, which is what started the company in the first place. He needed a bigger amp to use. It's funny how that song "Louie Louie" was investigated by the FBI. :roll:

The FBI, and the US Congress. Sunn started out in their garage.

Yeah, I read all about them, he was making new amps called "Conrad Amps," a couple of years ago. I just looked and the website he had is gone, or at least the domain name is for sale. I have no clue what happened there, but I'll see if anything comes up. There was/is a Facebook page, but he didn't do anything with it, other than link to that site.

As far as the song goes, I guess they thought the lyrics might have been obscene, for some bizarre reason. :roll: I guess they had a lot of that type of BS in the 60's, didn't they? :P

Yeah, for stuff like that they did. There were a lot of old folks, then that were afraid of the new generations ideas. The lifestyle, the music, etc,........
