Misc. notes from first row

Unread post by ndfilth » Thu Jun 16, 2005 1:20 am

This is just a couple things I noticed after sitting front row at Deer Creek:

1) On Dave's guitar rack, there are currently no 714's. I don't know if this means that they don't plan on playing YNK or if they are on a different rack, but on his rack are 3 914s 2 W65s and 2 Jerry Jones.

2) Monk restrings Dave's guitar any time he switches guitars out during the set. He's got a little station set up where he just pumps out new strings like clockwork.

Nobody might be interested in this information, but I thought it was interesting.

pretty cool. Ya Dave broke strings two different times when I was up at the Penn State concert last year for vote for change tour. I was wondering if he had like his own pitt crew just for changing strings cuz they came out with a replacement guitar first, but then the guitar with the busted string would be out on the rack in two seconds. I know it's only one string, but it was like lightning fast. That guy must be good...

during OSW (i think) on the last vote for change tour, the one they played on TV, he broke a string and had to switch mid song. didn't miss a beat.

Exactly the one time I remember. The string broke, he kept on singing, took the guitar off him and unplugged it. While that was happening, Monk with a new guitar, they switched guitars, Dave plugged the new one, put it on and kept on playing.

I didn't know Monk re-stringed Dave's guitars every time he took them out. And Dave still breaks tons of strings :roll:
