That is all. What is the biggest, most vulgar and ridiculous rig you've played over?

Also, have some videos of the whole mess:

Actually, part of the gimmick was, that the price of the ticket included a pair of earplugs.

the Slayer rig is all real 4x12s, only the bottom six are hooked up - the middle and top rows are for show, but are still real 4x12s according to my mate who was quizzing their amp techs last summer.

It was even better to hear them! Those bass heads really have a kick to them.

Also, there's some video up now. I'll try and edit the first post here.

I think Marshall also makes light dummy cabs, unloaded, which weigh a lot less than the real cabs, for artists who want such a wall of Marshalls.
