Interesting Randy pic

Post by The Flying Dutchman »

This one I never saw before:

The interesting thing to me is that he is using two cabs (looks 1960B's) and four superleads here. I haven't seen a pic of this setup before. :)

Found it at ebay:

You cannot see all of his cabs,if you notice his gear is set up looking across the stage ..This was mentioned in the Off the Rails book something to do with the stage set not being suitable for the sound.So extra fill in monitors were used and Rudy and Randy's cabs were set up to throw the sound across the stage rather then out into the crowd.Cool photo i think the guy that is selling this is a member over at RRTK

I went on guitargeek.com and saw randy's setup of 1981 Blizzard tour i guess in that picture it was his Diary Of A Madman setup. But well never know. Unless...........

Hmmmm. Didn't Randy play the Omni on 3/17/82?
THIS IS AN ORIGINAL PHOTOGRAPH I GOT WHILE LIVING IN ATLANTA. I worked at Turtles Records and this was given to me by a record rep. Ozzy Osbourne was scheduled to come to Atlanta, but as we all know, sadly, Randy was killed beforehand.

I bought a couple pictures from this guy, I think this may be from the Atlanta Omi show. His information I think is a little off. They did play Atlanta. Also a side note, from the photos I have seen it seems Randy only wore that studded vest on last few shows in the Southeast including the last Knoxville ofcourse.
