Hey, last Wednesday I was in my local music instruments shop to buy some strings and the guy that works there told me "dude, are you going to see Andy Timmons tonight isn't it?" and this was my face: 
I forgot about it! I just heard some rumors weeks before. Anyway during 19.00 oclock I drive to the theater and they still had tickets!
It was the first time I saw a guitar hero live show. It's been incredible. Andy is one of those guys that DO sounds exactly like his CDs. Same tone, same feelings, just more punch. I have just Ear X-stacy vol.1 and he played songs like electric gypsy, farmer sez, I remember stevie from that album. He's also a very funny and down to earth kind of guy. It was raining a lot that day and during his show drops started to fall on his amplifiers (some problem in the theater roof I suppose) he just laughed and keep to play. I'm really happy to have seen his show here in my city, this week has been a pain in the ass for family matters and shitty jobs event so this was like heaven for me.
Now the infos you just want to know: GEAR!
He used two mesa stilettos head with 4 2x12 mesa cabs and a gmajor iirc. 3 Shure sm57 a vox wah and a peterson blue pedal (dunno what it is). That's it. Killer killer tone. That night I also discovered he's no more a laney endorser but he now endorses stilettos.
Here you can see two video from that night, his band mates were really great as well, that drummer is totally crazy!
