You said..........Page was a guy who knew how to not play too loud.
ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...wrong went the buzzer
....Two 100watt marshall stacks through sixteen 12's
Have you ever stood next to a setup like that?
Your pant legs move from the air moving
Actually its pretty impressive to stand next to and feel it
Page played very loud and used dynamics in his playing because
its a feel thing and the other musicians on stage playing
the feel thing with him
The fireworks comparision was sound of almost absolute nothing
to a loud crash bang or boom and that comparison was to a
band using dynamicsIt had nothing to do with music...just dynamics
Huge dynamics make an impression to an audience
Classical, rock, jazz, country, polkas you name it
Also alot of musicians wear earplugs on stage
I know that for a fact and I wear them and have for years
Not all musicians have a hearing loss and ringing ears
Again...the plastic shield is to help bring the stage volume
down without the drummer having to tap the drums and lose the feel
on stage.A jazz trio dosnt have the stage volume issue that rock/country and
other electric bands haveYou use the plastic shield according to your needs to get that
stage volume down in small venues
