I saw Zakk with Judas Priest several months ago and I can verify their awesome . They fill the whole stage . On the other hand Priest didn't have a visable amp anywhere . I was center stage 20 yards out , and the PA was pointed straight at me . It's the first concert I ever had to shove shit in my ears to survive .

Same setup he had when I saw them last year. When the stage lights went down all you could see was tube glow. Funny he has all the signature Marshall's but the real amps producing the sound are offstage. I suppose every big touring act does that now to prevent the real 'money' amps from getting damaged

Yeah, I wonder about that whole thing, too. Slash does that, too. I wonder whether it is just a product endorsement eal. It is kind of silly, you know? Back in the day, the guitars didn't go into the PA, and a Marshall stack was necessary to get your sound out in a large arena. Other than the fact that a nice wall of amps makes feedback an easier thing to do, they seem almost entirely cosmetic.
