I just saw him a few days ago, supporting The Who.

He KILLED! :D

You're in for a great show. Just don't be too close to that rig...

Cheers - C

Ceri.

What rig was he using? JTM45's or Pro Jr's?

A true testement to the man with the fingers that he could switch from one to the other so easily.

Hi Nick: Marshall all the way. I presume he uses the smaller amps for more intimate venues or just for TV studios or similar? Though I seem to recall it was Marshalls at Ronnie Scott's too, wasn't it? Man, people's ears were ringing for days - he ain't gentle with that volume knob!

This is him at the Hammersmith Apollo the other night:

That shot was when Debbie Harry came on to do a couple of numbers. Heart of Glass with The Who's backing band and Jeff Beck taking a long solo in the middle. Very weird - but oddly good!

Any doubts I might have privately had about the direction his own material has been taking just recently vanished that night. He was flippin' sensational! Streuth, what fingers! :D

Early night for me. Ta-ta - C

I've seen two miked Pro jr's in the crossroads 2010 DVD. One vintage covered and one light blue. There were a bunch of Marshals on the stage as well, so I am nor sure what was on at the time. Big sound none than less.

Thanks [beatles1909] for the concert heads up.

That would be well worth trying to talk the Missus into a trip to T.O.-I'd love to see J.B. live after watching live at Ronnie Scotts.Beck is probably the best all 'round guitarist in the world today,if not certainly one of the top 5.
