RTP-area local music and culture

["Jeremy Blair" <jerblar AT gmail.com>]

That reminds me of a couple of years ago when I bought a tube amp from
guitar center. I was showing it off to my non-musician friends and
they were all like, "you can still buy tube amps?" I think the
majority of people think that tube amps are a relic of the classic
rock era and aren't being made anymore.

I see a ton of Fender DeVilles and Deluxes on stage these days..a few
Marshall stacks from the big spenders and an occasional Vox. We're
talking about tube amps at this point right?
