blarg I wasn't there for Sunday. Even still, I didn't say hi to anyone, which I really regret. I was in such a stupor and extremely tired that I had trouble forming coherent sentences as was made apparent when I asked James about the whole paradigm shift in audio engineering. I observed famous forumites and they are all grand people.
For those of you who have not seen Cliff in person, he strikes me as the kind of guy whos more on the reserved side, has a bit of a southern? Accent, humble dude, and of course is the master of the Axe Fx. His explanation on preamp gain and power amp gain was pretty awesome. Cliff also has a riff/technique that he uses for tone matching amps with the Axe Fx called "Cliff Boogie" which made sense and also made me chuckle.
I did happen to say hi to m@ and he is a very energetic, knowledgeable, goofy and friendly guy.
(i was that kid with the goofy deadmau5 hat :razz)
