Although there are some players that actually use more than one, for the most part that is an illusion. Sometimes, only one amp is active & cab is miked. More often everything on the stage is for show & the real head & cab being used is off stage in a rack where the guitar techs can get to it quickly & replace or fix it.
And then there's some of this.
