[QUOTE="WarriorOfMetal:1146901"][QUOTE="BSV:1146628"]it was pretty snotty that they faced their amps the way they did. west coast bands always have a tendency to be pompous and akward, so i guess it works. [/QUOTE] You don't know much about live sound, do you? For a good mix, especially in a large room like that, it helps to not have the amps pointed toward the audience. Your typical guitar speaker cabinet is extremely directional, so the people in its line of fire will be blasted by it, and the people off to the side will barely hear it. Having the amps on the sides of the stage, faced across the stage helps solve this problem (allowing the sound guy to make a mix that's more consistent throughout the room), and at the same time, makes it easier for the band members to hear each other. Interesting how you didn't comment on the fact that Blind Guardian had their amps not just off to the sides, but actually in the wings and facing completely away from the audience. This was definitely one of the two best-sounding shows I've ever seen at the Palladium (the other being Iced Earth in October '08), and Holy Grail easily had the best sound I've ever heard for an opening band there...and I wouldn't doubt for a second that the amp placement was at least partially responsible for that.[/QUOTE]
