That's what I keep hearing, but mine still isn't getting any better...

Was just thinking you would bring a whole new dimension to an amp fest with all of your pedals. I’m sure I’d buy a ton of them getting to try them out in real time

You need a Demo Board if you don't already have one so everyone doesn't molest your new Merchandise..

She can stay at the house with me and y'all can camp out. :ROFLMAO:
Was talking to another member about hosting one a few months ago and my inlaws have a food truck that we could probably borrow for it.
Only thing here is that to set something up we only have about two weeks in August where it's pretty much guaranteed to not rain.
That property is a few acres, so plenty of places to camp and maybe get a rent a fence or something like that to lock everything up at night.

If you do it, i'm driving over the passes!

Beer, friends, amps. Cant go fucking wrong.

But two things stand out. You read all these new amp days and wonder what the amp is like, maybe buy to try. But an amp fest can take all the mystery out and let you play it back to back with yours and other heavy hitters..

For those of you with not much experience with the heavy hitters, especially the ones that say amps you havent played suck, lmao, you can try it and hate it or love it with an actual base of comparison. Or you can figure out what flavor of gain you like.

Moral of the story, I am going to drink 🍻 at Matt's place tomorrow and I am fucking excited!
If i forget how to play guitar because i drink too much, then it will just be another day at Matt's

3 of my great friends came from the only amp fest I attended. Ended up having countless more at mi casa.

I don't mind boosts, but why would anyone put one in front of a Boogie Mark series? BTW, I was in DFW a few weeks ago and you guys have a very efficient airport.

I don’t usually boost a mark but here’s my old boosted mark 4 .8 string tight !

Amp fests? Very interesting. Can I go sober?

I am nursing a pretty epic hangover and am considering going sober.

I know I always get too drunk at Matt's, so i went out with some friends last night and overdid it. Amateur night. It helps to calm the next day drinking. I think within an hour last time I was down at his house, I was pretty much incapable of playing guitar, lmao. Still had a blast, but i need to do better.
