Calumet Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 Drummerworld.com is one of the best sites on the entire internet. COUNTLESS videos of just about every famous drummer you can think of. It is a killer site that you could lose days on. It's really too bad there is no keyboardplayerworld.com. There is really nothing close, other than some of the clips on youtube.

soundscape Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 Yes, that would be no end of help! Sometimes it seems keyboard playing is one big "secret". (But maybe it's not a conspiracy, it's just that not too many people are interested. ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Ward MP Hall of Fame Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 I blame the bands that don't take us on tour and just use keyboard backing tracks. Put us on tour, we'll get attention damnit! Also, wussy keyboardists who just stand in the back next to the drummer don't help interest either. But yeah, I would really love something like that. If I had time and resources I would so be on that, lol. You're right though soundscape, keyboarding is very mysterious and less accessable than guitaring and drumming.

Tom Fiala Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 Great idea. I'd love to see some live performances with close-ups of the keyboard. Especially useful for music where no transcription is available, and you're wondering - "how the ^&*) did they just play that!" Tom F. "It is what it is."

Dick Ward MP Hall of Fame Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 Might be a sweet bonus CD to a certain magazine? A few AVI files maybe? And like whatever guitar magazine it is a "bet you can't play this" clip. Those are pretty crazy "...Keytar in a heavy metal band is nothing more than window dressing" - Sven Golly Cursed Eternity - My Band Dick Ward - My Me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
workstationM.I. Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 I still maintain that keyboard players are the coolest around,because we can "ape" just about anything we want to with the synth/workstation at hand. Bass players can't do that.Ditto guitarists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
