I plugged my Fender Blues Jr Tube amp, made in the USA, into an old style outlet at a bar gig last night. When I turned it on, I heard a "Vomp" sound come from the PA, like it was drawing too much power, and then the amp turned off. Now the amp won't turn on at all. I replaced all the tubes, but it still won't turn on. Anyone have any ideas what could be wrong?

Make that fuses (F2 not shown on some versions of schematics), and if any amp won't even come on, the fuses are the first suspects. Man, I hope that you didn't break off the ground pin from your electrical plug, as you mentioned "old style outlet".
