I think that for the next MONEYPIT group effort, we should put together a 
band, where anyone can sit in and jam.  You know, including drums, guitar, bass 
and (heaven forbid) vocals.  Maybe a synth or Hammond thrown in.  No more than 
2 Mellotrons (we wouldn't want to overdo it).  If Pierre comes, that's Pierre 
and one other Mellotronist ;-).  Sorry, but I have a strong desire to hear / 
jam in a band with a real Mellotron, after just viewing the Moodies 1970 "Lost 
Performance".  You know, it could have been so good if they just would have 
brought their gear to that show.  I saw them live in 1971, I know they can do 
it.
