Then I don't know what Harry's talking about. If one looks at the pictures I posted, the instruments
are played with a microphone in front, in almost all cases. I didn't see any 'electric' guitars, or
guitars with wires running to amplifiers.
D'oh. You don't see many long wires running from most of the guitars to
amps at a rock concert, either, if they are using wireless mikes on
their instruments.
If they didn't have amplifiers, only the first couple rows would hear
it at all.
I liked Richard's explanation better.
D'oh. The point: that herring didn't see any wires coming from the
on-stage instruments going to amps doesn't mean much in terms of
defining whether they are "electric" or not, because, for example, a
guitar can be electric and hooked up to an amp wirelessly. A
floor-standing microphone doesn't change whether a guitar is "electric"
or strictly non-electic acoustic.
