I've got several rack mount fx units & an Akai sampler that bit the dust a few years ago. Not worth fixing any of them, plus I don't have any use for them these days. The Akai was a lot of fun and used it a lot, but I still have two ASR-10's if I get the urge to go down that road again. I've generally sold any bigger ticket items when I started getting a sense that the end was near and I might end up with a door stop.

Thanks for the welcome Rod! Don't recall any keyboard players named Rod when I was active "live", but that was a long time ago (80's for the most part) when I was doing it on a regular basis. I actually spent most of the last two decades in my basement studio, either doing things on my own or recording & contributing to other people's projects. Getting closer to the end of the current project I'm working on with a guitar player friend of mine. (Another basement studio hermit like me.) I'd like to eventually throw together a band that can actually play the stuff live as I'll have more time soon to commit to that sort of thing. 4 piece would work, but a dedicated singer would lighten the load. Some of the material is quite demanding, so it would take a lot of dedication and interest from whoever would be involved. Won't be easy, but it wasn't supposed to be! Len

Loooong time lurker here. Thought it was about time I joined, even if I don't end up posting on a regular basis. Lots of good information to be had from the members here. Been playing keys since I was a kid, although I won't claim to be a whiz in any style by any stretch. (I'm 60 yrs. young presently and quickly approaching an early retirement from my day job.) Seeing ELP on their Brain Salad Surgery tour in '74 blew me away and got me into playing keyboards more seriously. I've played full time in clubs in the past, (mostly harder edged rock) although my primary passion has always been creating/playing original music. I always preferred playing an all original set live to a half empty room over a bunch of cover tunes in a packed club. . Currently deep into an album project with a guitar player with similar musical influences. I had a C3/leslie, a couple of ARP synths & a stringer as a teen when I first started gigging. Bought that gear before I bought my first car! It's been ongoing GAS ever since, although my GAS has tailed off considerably the last 2 - 3 years.

New member here! (long time lurker) They say (whoever "they" are) that writing things down is the best way to remember something. That said, writing down lyrics to a boatload of songs is no small task, but if there's a problem song or two, or even a particular portion of a song that is a reoccurring problem then it may help. Get's harder as we age, that's for sure.
