Bad video and audio quality, I know, but we were so close Brad's amps were out front and you could really hear his style and phrasing. Guitar players will appreciate this, I thought it was a cool example of what makes him a special player.
The Dr. Z amps he uses are great amps. Lately he's been using the "Zwreck" amps which were designed by Dr. Z and the late Ken Fisher of Trainwreck Circuits. I'm very fortunate to live close to where Ken lived and had a chance to play thru one of his amps. The Trainwreck amps are superb! If you ever get a chance to play thru one, do it!
@maphisshredcore1 Really, dude? Everyone knows Brad is great. Who gives a crap about what's going on onstage? You do realize that that's not a real fire, don't you? It's a campfire on the screen and it's there because the song is (obviously) centered on sitting around the campfire. But what difference does it make either way? Gimmicks make live shows more fun; only old cynics wine and cry about them when there's no logical reason.
Its funny, but its all mixed out front these days. The stage volumes are real low, everything miked and mixed out front. Pretty neat to be close enough to hear exactly what he's doing there though.

@HillbillyRockstar100 all hes doing is playing minor blues and pentatonic patterns over power chords with added 7th chord barre to sound blues.

Brad is a MONSTER player. I can only dream of achieving half of his guitar talent.
