Does anyone know the specifcs of the equipment on the stage? Like how many speakers, subs, amps, etc, there are? Im not too familiar in this subject but I know
some venues provide speakers or is that provided by the band itself?

I guess thats a good start. After viewing some picutres it appears there are two large speakers behind Benj. http://weblogs.newsday.com/entertainment/tv/blog/oar%20blog.jpg Could those possibly be
subs? i know there are also various speakers scattered around the stage, and in some of the bigger venues there are huge hanging speakers.

toll on their hearing after a while?

Behind Benj would be what is referred to as a bass cabinet. It's very common to see something like this, check out Stefan from DMB...
As far as the big hanging speakers, depending on the tour they will either travel with these speakers from place to place or the venue will provide them for special one off shows. |

I believe that what Benj said about his rig is that he uses the two 18" subs as monitors for Chris's kick drum, and uses the 8x10 Ampeg as his bass
cab. The band is using "in-ear" monitors in conjunction with stage monitors, which is very common. This allows them to each have a perfect mix in
their ear, at a tolerable volume, while also acting as an ear plug to prevent inner ear damage from the loud stage volume. As for amps and other gear... your
eye is as good as mine.
