Replaced blown chip in the Adrenalinn III.  Played through it for about an hour and remembered how much I liked the tone.  Next step is to replace blown Adrena Prom chip in the Behringer FCB1010.  As much as I like the Afrenalinn III, for live performance, having a controller is essential, especially the new Adrena Prom.

Lessons Learned

Stay Loose – Draw the line between preparation and constraint.  As I start playing in the Sundayworship setting again, I am refining my practice practices (redundant, redundant) so I am more efficient with my time.  I spent several hours yesterday practicing the set list for today, as well as picking specific Adrenalinn III patches for individual songs and workingthose patches with the GR-20.  When set up this morning at Grace City, the Adrenalinn II would not power on.  After a couple of minutes (that felt like hours) of troubleshooting, I had to abandon the Adrenalinn III and get all of my tone from the ART T-28.  I am not a stranger to the “Attack Module,” so it did not take long to dial in the tones I wanted for the service.  The point is I didn’t panic and I did not decide that since the A3 was kaput, I could not do the service.  At the end of the service, everything went well.  Kendall amended the song list (not from my input) and the new songs fit well with the tone from the ART amp.  “Semper Gumby”
