Drones Tour

Some small changes have been made to Matts rig since The 2nd Law era. He has a new tech, by the first name of "Chris". He operates differently from Matt's previous tech, Jason Baskin. He has noticeably differently styles of guitar routing and set up. For example guitars are now numbered with "1,2,3,4" in the flight cases and correspond to the numbers on the guitar straps. Wireless units and now in pouches rather than exposed like in The 2nd Law tour. Matt seems to have also ditch the additional Liquid Foot Controller Junior. He also tends to do patch switches himself more often.

Matt switched from two standard Kempers to three rack versions, possible due to increase in guitars used.
