Saw Johnny Fuckin' Marr live last night

Post by finboy » Fri Dec 05, 2014 9:53 am

Saw johnny marr last night, mind blowing. Lead guitarist had a les paul standard with piezo, running to a panel fron marshall and controlling the synth. Johnny had his signature jags running to a DRRI amps SRRI, both inputs on the trem side of the DRRI, and the second input of the SRRI. Both were running bos gt100's johnny had a diamond compressor. The new songs were great, the smiths stuff was really great, the depeche mode cover was amazing. crap quality iphone Pics...

slightly off topic, what's the story with this jag of his, looks like it's been Jazz-ified...

It's more like a Jazz that's been Jag-ified. Jazzmaster proportions with Jaguar hardware/switches (though I don't know how it's wired). It was a Fender Custom Shop job in Burgundy Mist Metallic. Seems to have been sort of a short-lived thing, since I never see any other pics of him with it.

Great DM cover. Thanks for sharing.

Marr's in my backyard the day after tomorrow and I can't go. :squint: It will be my biggest concert regret for 2014.

I (stupidly) didn't go to the previous Seattle show and this one is cancelled. Sad to miss the chance, but family trumps rock.

Unfortunately it was -20 outside, I didn't want to chance it waiting around for a chat/autograph at the risk of frostbite

this just in: Marr has postponed his whole West Coast swing because of a family illness. so if you (like me) were going to miss your local show because of a conflict or whatever, you may get another chance:
