Darrin, the ps-2 arrived yesterday. Thanks!
It's going to be a bit sketchy, 'cause I'm taping 3 bands (Scofield, Herbie Hancock and a huge Carlos Santana & Friends show) tomorrow and thursday. I'm assuming that the Sco' and Herbie sets will be under 2 hours each, but I have NO idea how long the Santana show will last. I don't even know if it will be one set or two.
I imagine that I'll run one batt per night for the ad-20, and maybe run two duracell regular batts for the Sco'/Herbie show, and then one extra strength for the Santana soiree in the PS-2. I assume the PS-2 sucks more power than the AD-20...
It's 100% stealth, so I don't want to be playing with the rig too much, but if I miss a minute of this bad boy I'll be kicking myself for months:
The extraordinary guitar player Carlos Santana is the guest of honour of this 38th edition of the Montreux Jazz Festival. For a start, he will be performing as the Special Guest for the «Blues Summit» on 12th July with Buddy Guy, Clarence «Gatemouth» Brown and Otis Rush who will each be playing with their own bands. Then, on 13th July, Carlos Santana and his band will take the audience on a musical trip throughout the guitarist's past career from his first band, the «Santana Blues Band», to today. His son, Salvador, will also be performing with his band that same night. Carlos Santana will finally be playing for the «Hymns For Peace» evening on 15th July along with Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, John McLaughlin, Angélique Kidjo, Chick Corea, Idrissa Diop, Steve Winwood and others. They will all interpret classics on the theme of peace by authors like Bob Marley, John Lennon and Bob Dylan.
The only catch (preventing me from extensive testing) is that the AT853s seem to be stuck in Customs in germany. They were shipped ages ago, and everything else has arrived except them. Starting to stress me out.
Thanks for all the help there guys. If all goes well I'll offer up some copies on the board for all the "tech support" I've recieved over the last month or so.
