Checked out G3 last night here in Vegas.
Phil Collen - BlackStar Amps
John Petrucci - Mesa JP2C and 4x12 Recto Cabs (stereo)
Joe Satriani - JVM410 and Marshall Cabs stereo
Mike Keneally - KSR head and Cab
DJ Ashba (guest appearance) - Kemper and Marshall Cab
I could not see effects racks to verify any Fractal gear
I do have to say that Petrucci's tone dominated the other rigs. He had the Mesa's cranked to their sweet spot. The only criticism would be he had to much delay mixed that sometimes overwhelmed and caused it to washed out a bit.
When they all got together and performed their end of show jam it was interesting to hear all rigs at the same time. I was in front of stage so I was mainly hearing stage volume. Still have to say the Mesa the way it was sitting in the band mix was very powerful and big.
