Ah, no.  Although Golden Earing was the first real concert I attended.  They opened for Triumph. Nostalgic indeed. 

I'm looking for the FatKat form factor so I can park the pedal next to my acoustic kick drum pedal.  An inverted beater style pedal won't let me tuck it into this space as neatly.  I remember the Shark pedal in '83? that was a similar form factor.  Just curious if there is anything contemporary out there.
