1) a mic and

First off, I would suggest buying all this stuff used. You'll be better off. Peavey actually makes pretty decent practice type PA's. EV is good as well, but a bit spendier. Anything better than that starts to cost big time (but it makes a difference). Peavey makes these 1-200 watt amps with like 4 lines in and a little equalizer (they are solid state). Then you could just get a monitor (the wedge shaped speakers at the front of the stage which allow the band to hear what is going on) or 2 to start with. The amp board together thing doesn't leave you a lot of room to expand, but it won't break your bank. For Mics anything by Shure is a safe bet. The SM57 is pratically bulletproof, if you need an on/off switch the SM58 isn't much more. This was all true in 95. It's been a while since I was doing the rock thing.


Hope that helps,
