Good afternoon, all...

Just thought you might like to see our DR203, all ready for our show this evening. Pics taken with 'phone, so not the best quality, but here we go...

Neatly perched on our HH 2 x 15 folded horn cab (yes, we're rather 'vintage', I'm afraid..!). Just the right width...
Tom, sound check...
Our modest stage (not quite Glastonbury, of course..!)...
It's a fine, sunny evening in France, ideal for our village mini-festival. We play at 23h30 our last date for this season (for now,at least...) so we're hoping it goes down as well as the previous ones...

Cool!
thanks for sharing!

Nice .

I feel sorry for that PA, trying to keep up with HIWATT power .

Is the HH cab Fane-loaded? Those dust caps look familiar.

No need to feel envious, we're a very modest outfit, but with good gear..!

We tried to explain to the sound bloke, but he went ahead and mic'ed up the lot (2 mic's, even, on the Mesa/Marshall stack coté cour...). When we were finally asked to all play together, I think he understood a bit better. The mics were taken off the drums, leaving just a bit of kick and the overheads. I'm pretty sure that the cursors were pretty low on the console..! All we really need for venues like that is a decent lead vocal. It's not the Hollywood Bowl..!

I've not looked inside yet; I think HH had their own drivers generally, but they could be Fanes, too. They are definitely original, that's certain, as I bought from a bloke who got it new, in '78, and hardly used it since. It's almost NOS, even with it's dust cover..!
I'll have a peek once we unload back into our rehearsal rooms.

We shot a Handycam video; I don't know how it'll come out, but I'll post something if it's at least reasonable...
