My band is on the lineup for a large July 4 concert -- last year about 6,000 people showed. I have read that some folks bring their big amps to such gigs. I am assuming for such a big crowd, that even a bassman type amp would be miked (right?). If that's so, it seems like the only reason (because I also have smaller amps that I love) to play the large amp is for increased stage volume w/o going through the monitors. Typically, I get my sound from my amp and a touch is in other monitors. Becasue the stage is outdorrs (with no reflective walls), do you think I should use the bassman for good stage volume?? I suspect that I couls also use a 2-6V6 amp, but it would have to be up significantly in my monitor and probably others. Any thoughts? Thanks! --John K. PS I will be making up my solos on the spot becasue I can't remember what I made up last night! :-)
