Title: Beer crates
Post by: richard on April 06, 2012, 10:00:27 PM
What do you stick your amp on now you can't get beer crates any more ? I managed to find a couple of old milk crates that I carry around with me.

I did a gig a few years back and asked the barmaid if she could let me have two beer crates the same size.

She said ' The same size as what ? '

I bit the bullet and bought an amp stand. I used chairs in the absence of crates but in the end, a stand was the easy option. Shame because some of those crates had great tone.

Newcastle Brown Ale crates were my favourite - lots of mids and a nice top end.

Don't they do beer crates anymore?!  :o

What do they deliver the bottles in then?

It's the end of live music...

Newcastle Brown used to give my arse great tone. Shame the next day you couldn't get away from the repercussions...

Had a friend vom down the side of his mini going up the M62 after he had a particularly bad NukeyBroon aftershock. As he was driving at the time, the passenger was steering at this point. I was in the back trying to simply survive. Those were the days!
