Tag Archives: Lords of Altamont

I got a chance to stop by Lords of Altamont’s studio and visit guitarist, John Saletra (aka, “Big Drag”) before they were heading back on tour and help him set up his board. John shared a few stories about their European tour and one in particular about the need for a cable on the fly right before a performance. It seems that a roadie had wrapped up the gig with a few cables hanging out of the case. Because of this, the plug on one of John’s 30’ guitar cords broke at the plug. “It’s a good thing that I had some SLUGs in my bag along with a roll of cable. I just cut a length of cord, put the connectors on, and I was ready to go!”
