   Then try some valerian root extract instead, it's a natural tranquilizer.   
   You can get it at a health food store or in a grocery store in Celestial   
   Seasonings Sleepytime EXTRA tea.

   I need my other keyboard, the  DX7, to get the  bass sounds I need.

   Whenever someone, like  at church, blasts me with a monitor, I just  turn it   
   around ;)

   There's simply no substitute for good soundwork!

   If it's known to need to be recharged, then the sooner the better.

   So long as you keep the beat, why not jam?

   It is, and I'm still waiting to hear what the recordings of yesterday's   
   service performance sound  like.

   Just have to find out the hard way, by getting one ;)

   To do it right, it'd probably be best to s trip off the unwanted color paint   
   and use some high quality finish intended for guitars, in the  color(s) you   
   want.   
   Better yet, you could tell the *manufacturer* to do it for you when you   
   order It!!!
