Well, it was awesome. Petrucci's tone was sweet. He was using two Mark IV's and a Lonestar with 6 4x12's. The show was great they rocked. It was so much fun watching him and Jordan dual with each other on solos. Between the Buried and Me played also and they had some great Mesa tones too.

I have had my mind set on saving up for a rectifier for a long time since I had to sell my Single Recto awhile ago but hearing Petrucci's tone makes me really want to sit down with a Mark IV for awhile!

Opeth was pretty awesome too. I couldn't see their amps, just the cabs which were Marshall and Laney.

3 was okay, looked like Bogner Uberschalls that they were using.

The highlight really was Dream Theatre though. One of the best shows in my life. I flew all the way up to D.C. to see them with my buddies from college. They are playing here in Orlando on Saturday, maybe I'll go again. Anyway, just had to share how awesome it was.
 
Yeah man there shows are like an experience. I've only seem them once and had to drive 7 hours but it was worth it. At the time Petrucci was using the IIC+ preamp into a rectifier power amp... the sound was UN real. I had a wicked spot behind the sound booth so I had a great mix and his guitar in and of itself melted my face.

But yeah, a DT show is amazing. They play with such grace and it sounds so powerful. At the time they were by themselves so it was them for 3 hours... felt like 20 minutes. I will never forget any moment of the set.
 
Really? I saw that show too, Opeth was the highlight for me. Dreamtheater's set was too...boring. I dunno. It was great to watch Petrucci, the guy is a ******* machine, and he's huge and his rig is ******* retarded and huge and great sounding... but their set didn't appeal to me. I actually almost fell asleep during it a few times.

Opeth was sweet though.
 
I saw them Tuesday. 3 uses Kustom amps:

Anyone see him last night in Atlanta? Any confirmation that he was playing through a prototype Mark V?

His amps weren't visible when I saw them. I was surprised he's not showing off his rack anymore! :lol:
