And my last gigging rig, from about 2009, just before we left NZ for the UK - this is set up in Australia after we returned in 2013...
Everything through the board except the bass... through the ELFA, seen way back with the PA and monitor slave atop...

Don't mean to be rude but you do seemed to have aged quite a bit between 1998 and 2006Originally Posted by corsair
Just as an adendum to the whole amp thing.. here's a shot from about 2006 in Christchurch.... note the Holden in the bottom r/h corner!
... somewhere in Otago, 1998... trusty old Holden behind me!
Possibly early 200s, possibly Wellington.. I dunno, but there's that Holden!! See the guitar in all of these shots, too - Vantage VA900...
Woolshed gig, North Canterbury 2006... Holden just visible behind Penny's leg..
Ahhh... trip down memory lane!
My Holden cabinet is the white one barely visible between the bodies to the right of the drummer.
I'm on bass and yes I may possibly have aged a bit since this one was taken around 1979
... it doesn't get any better at all from 2006 to 2016, either, I can assure you!!
...later... much later....
Actually, Dave; I put you crook there! The font of all knowledge in my house assures me that this was in 1991 - so much for the accuracy of my memory: you have all been duly warned!!

Geez Dave, the guy on the Tele was tall!!!
Usually tall guys were always the bass player. What happened here?

I'm 5'10" tall (175cm), apparently that's about the average height of an adult male, there's only one problem, I'm such a skinny so and so....lol.
