Stuart,

Yeah, it helps a lot. In fact, I was hoping to get your attention; I 
figured that you'd have valuable experience with it. So far, I've 
heard only good things about the PAS from the limited number of 
edrummers who've used it, and I've encountered a slight amount of 
skepticism from those who haven't. The design is certainly intriguing 
enough in its own right to attract all sorts of perspectives. I can't 
wait to get my hands on it (and I'm already dreading the moment when 
I give it back). Thanks for the report. I want to go into this 
audition with as much background as possible.

Ed
