To make it cool we should inject just a little humor....not so that it isn't taken seriously though...

if you followed the instructions above I think there would be a blown ear drum or two and a law suit to follow...

That's what it would look like (even worse probably...) and I think back to the good ol' days when I cranked a 100 watt Marshall stack at backyard parties....man, I don't care what kind of TV the neighbors had back in the 70s... it couldn't compete with the Marshall for at least 5-6 house radius.... what were we thinking?? no wonder the cops showed up after about 1 or 2 songs...we were stomping all over their 'Laugh-in' or 'Lawrence Welk' or whatever cheesy 70s show on at that time...BTW the bass player had an SVT rig to boot!

AHAHAHA.. I been there too ,, thats funny! I remember trying wireless for the first time.. cranked up the amp and ran down the street from one of those back yard tings... see how far ya know. made it about 200 or 300 feet. every one watching.. the I got out of range.. Super Loud buzz took over.. amazing how loud something is when it goes wrong. it took what felt forever to get back and reset haha.. I miss those days (funny stuff felt like a goober..)
