Went to see Whitesnake and Journey tonight

Just got in from seeing Whitesnake and Journey at Wembley Arena tonight. Annoyingly, the traffic was bad and we were late, otherwise we could have added Thunder to that list too.

Both bands were superb and seemed to be having a blast. Was great to hear all those fantastic classic songs live!

The guitarists with Whitesnake both had three full stacks of Marshalls. Only one in each were mic'd though. When they redid the stage for Journey, there were no amps in sight. Both bands were running IEMs, so no need for the cabs I guess.

I know Neal Schon is an Axe-FX user but in his last rig rundown I saw, he said he was using a Blackstar amp as well. Now this may be me wanting to "hear" this, but Neal's sound seemed much better and refined than the Whitesnake sound. I was wondering if he'd switched to using the Axe-FX for everything?
