Re: Live music?

YES....

Cheating!!!  thats what I need to do Cheat!!!  I've seen it done, and 
done well, well not the minidisk thing, but the music as a whole 
using some spiffy piece of equipment....bottom lin is that the guys 
that I play with are good, no doubt about it.  however there are 
tunes that we would like to cover that contain instuments that none 
of us have any clue how to play, Flutes,Violins, orchestra sequences, 
Etc. I guess the obvious answer is not to play them...but thats just 
not an option for me....since the gigs that we are booking require us 
to play at least 15 tunes of this one list.  the crowd pleaser 
tunes....Help!!!  now I'm desperate.  got a gig booked next month!!!
