The last pic. That's Neil Schon's rig. Don't think BoneyM is playing through it.

My bet was on Neil Schon, or Warren Haynes

I was working that gig and can 100% confirm that unit is Neil Schon's.

What was Neil using to power the rig?

This was the fourth post in this thread. It's Neil Schon's.

So when Joe plays, Neil stops and listen ?

It wouldn't surprise me to learn that a significant number of high profile players have an Axe but may not use it live due to contractual obligations and/or the preference to have a traditional amp-based setup on stage. Plenty of the "big guys" are serious gear hounds and buy and use all sorts of stuff in the studio, for song writing, etc.

More likely that it's part of the backstage (belongs to the venue, or another entity), and it gets used. They may or may not give it a shot on a 'what the hell' basis, but these guys are creatures of habit, so when they decide, it's usually gear that they know and understand well.
