This guy needs an M-4000 sitting beside his Dr. Who keyboard.
A Dalek on stage would be good as well.

Perhaps Mike could send us the link to his recording of this track
again.  I remember is sounded very good.

Have a look about 1:02 on the video.

How did he manage to grow his chin into the shape of a gibbon's scrotum?

Amazing.

I've never been close enough to a gibbon's scrotum to be able to see the resemblance, and I'm cool with that...

Dear Mr Dickson, I work at the Museum of Natural History and have seen
gibbons scrotums (stuffed ones that is). They are smaller and less pointy.

The following reply message from "Jay" came to me by mistake.

Mike,
I would think that he's using the controller keyboard to access
several rack mounted modules.  There is no telling what keyboard
(brand) he's using.  Only his keyboard technician would know for sure.
 I just purchased the Kurzweil PC3x and I love it.  It's a great
performance board.  I've been playing Kurzweils for many years now.  I
like your band.

Hey that would be great, Mike, then it would take less time before you  
finally get to play. When's the next show? I'm also perfectly willing to lend  you 
my special CP-70 tuning mallet.

The CP-33 has the GHE keyboard.  Nice!  About 250 lbs lighter than a
cp-70.

frank, 
thanks for the tuning mallet offer.  the next show is this saturday sept 20 at iota. i have too many record production costs coming up to get a nord right now, so i'll have the cp-70 for the show.  i know everyone thought it was my gear that was holding up the last dc show, but it was a bad house DI.  man that was frustrating.
