In 1973, at the ripe age of 15, I saw the J. Geils Band at the 
Armadillo World Headquarters in Austin, Texas.  I stood right up 
against the stage at the feet of Magic Dick Salwitz, who played a JT-30 
through a blackface Princeton Reverb, which was remic'd through the 
house PA.  He had NO trouble being heard, and his sound (though my 
recollection of it may be clouded by the years) was phenominal.  You 
have the perfect amp!  Don't switch for a big gig.
