Topic: small battry amp

have a Micro Boss BR, the unit can save MP3 files that you have recorded.  It would be cool to have a small battery amp so I could use it to play backing tracks when jamming or busking.
I thought that a old tape player (boom box) would be ideal, but I'm dammed if I can find one to allow a MP3 conection.
anyone got any suggestions.

The guitar plays through the boss into a standered amp. I just would like a small amp without going to the expence of a Roland Cube

they make portable mp3 players (I have one) some have speakers large enough for what you want to do or a karaoke machine (used or new) has a feature to cue up tracks in the order you want and there not to expensive smile

I have a Roland Micro Cube and absolutely love it! I play my MP-3 or CD walkman thru the Cube while playing along with guitar or bass. Sony and many others make boom boxes with an input for MP-3 or you could get a small powered monitor speaker but those would probably cost as much as a Cube.
