Probably get that done if it doesn't rain.              That doesn't sound like much fun ;)              > Dreams ? Can I spend dreams at the store ? Probably not.              Depends on how you use them...and the best thing about them is you don't       have to spend them like Filthy Lucre - you get to keep them and keep using       them.              Like for instance, in addition to getting a two tier keyboard stand...I'm       planning on getting some effects - a tremolo for my piano, it'll sound great       with the electric piano voices...and maybe even the grand too. Then I'd like       a tube overdrive distortion pedal to use with my DX7's guitar and clavinet       voices. Then a phase shifter, and finally, an octave divider, for pumping       out some deep bass - last gig my duo played with another duo, they had a       really nice Fender amp that was supposedly a bass amp for me to go through -       this thing had Awesome midrange and highs as well as powerful deep bass, so       I set the controls so that I could play bass guitar style patterns with the       left hand...and it sounded great, really filled out our sound.       And I'll also need a pedal board to attach those boxes to...they're awfully       expensive considering how very little there is to them.       But the good news is that they'll be Behringer pedals, which literally cost       anywhere from 1/4th to 1/6th as much as the 'bigger names'.              > So tell me, what good are dreams ?                     Jim              Dreams are good because following them will keep you on course to using the       short time of being among the living with greatest efficiency...and       enjoyment.              Ouisie              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
