Haven't seen them play this tour yet.  The Chicago show is this Saturday.
But if the information is accurate, could the difference in tone be down
to the Line6 delay modeller (DL4 or Echo Pro?) that someone (Fluw?)
mentioned him using?  Is the tone that sort of mildly-distorted, somewhat
chimey sound like on "Seeing Red"?
