Tried out for a southern rock cover band today.

Hellbat

Fractal Fanatic
The guys are all 45+ years old, like me and all chill dudes. I'm not really a southern rock fan but I enjoy learning and playing all types of music so it was a fun experience. Their rehearsal room was nice and well soundproofed with a permanent PA so I got a chance to use the Axe and FRFR in anger and turn it up.

None of them except the other guitar player (a co-worker) had ever seen or heard an Axe FX before. The other guitarist is playing through a 2x12 Mesa Roadster combo. Some comments from the band members included...

"Wow, it sounds warm and tubelike. Not digital at all."
"Great job on the tones, you nailed the original sounds."
"It sounded really good and really sat in perfect in the band mix."

Anyways, just thought I'd share. In other news, I also picked up a BeatBuddy today. I'm looking forward to practicing with it and figuring it out.
