Photos from the 2nd Ottawa Amp & Pedal Fest (and I mean LOTS of photos)...

I wasn't able to get everybody's (actually anybody's) name and wasn't able to ask about a lot of the fantastic gear that was there. It would be a huge help if you could send me a PM me with the photo number and any info you can add. It doesn't necessarily have to be about the gear. It could just be your username or even a smart-ass comment.
Anyhow, here are the pics...

Believe it or not, there's a guy playing a '63 Gibson ES through a full-blown Leslie cab somewhere in there.

This is claude_blondin holding his very rare '65 Reverse Firebird with factory P90s.
Every time I turned around he was pulling out some other unusual axe.
I only managed to get photos of a couple of others. Check out photos 25 and 30 as well.

Didn't catch his name, but this guy and a buddy came all the way from Sudbury. BTW, that Silvertone was HOT!!!

Our host, Johannes (I hope I spelled that correctly).

Some very tasty gear there. I can see where there may have been an audio problem in that building though. Lot's of good to build on for future shows.
