Really loud,
The basic setup of Brian during his 1998 solo tour was:
Three Vox-amps fully wound open.
A Rocktron Intelliflex for Chorus and Pitch(harmony) effects
Two Bell delay modules (Brighton rock etc.)
A Fryer Treblebooster and a Dunlop Wah
Things haven't change much since then I guess.
The other amps are there just in case one of the three amps drop-out 'cause they are being pushed to their extremes (speakers & tubes)
By the way the three amps do receive different signals
Amp 1 (middle) Receives a dry signal (only blended by the Treblebooster and occasional Wah)
Amp 2 (right) Trebleb. Wah and 100% of the effect being used Chorus, Delay or Pitch panned hard right
Amp 3 (left) The same signal only panned hard left this time.
The reason that he uses this set-up is because he wants to avoid so called intermodular distortion (a result of too much effects being pushed through one amp)
A litlle unpractical especially playing pubs/clubs & small venues, it is so bloody loud and not every soundengineer has the space on his soundtable to amplify three different amps but it sounds great doesn't it?
I just came home from the Arnhem show and it was great and i'm still in a rush so that's why I'm still typing instead of going to bed (-:
Bye bye link

Well, in fact only 3 of the 9 AC-30 works, the bottom ones. The 3 in the middle are backups and the 3 on the top are empty cabinets. You can see it clearly in one of the pics of the Tour Program.
