Thanks! The synth I used was either a Korg N5 or a Korg MS-2000 (I had both the keyboard and the rack versions). I don't recall which I used because I would often play the MS-2000R (rack version) using the N5 as a controller. Heck, the "acoustic" guitar on Carefree was actually one of my other custom guitars ("Raspberry Twist" - see pic below) that has Variax guts in it! ?

I actually had two, but nothing close to new (and both linked here before!). The first was Mushroom Farm a song done as a collab with a guy in London and a singer from Belgium (who had only sung Country - I spent a lot of time trying to help him lose the twang! LOL... ?). Needless to say, the song name (which became the name of our band) was why it was played at the party. It was a funny arrangement where the guy in London would come up with a song title and I had to write the lyrics for it. Then we both came up with the guitar parts. Fun times! The second song is something I wrote back in the 70's. Here's a recorded version of Carefree but I actually played it live (first time I've played for anyone in many, many years!).

$29 entry price followed by a $329/month subscription to get the loop to stop? ?

This is Jim, someone I met through our local psychedelics group (yes, there are such things! ???). He's the ex-CEO of a software company, so that's what we usually talk about when we're not chatting about our favorite fungi. It was only at the Halloween party that I found out he's a musician (we both had songs that got played during the party). This is his first YouTube video! I'm blown away at how effortless he makes things look and can't wait to ask more about his gear! This wasn't even meant to be a set, polished piece either (as you can tell by when he gets up briefly and, later, you hear a laundry buzzer go off twice five minutes apart later - lol! ?). Now, I'm not a keyboardist, but just watching him looking away to set up the next part while he continues to play (without mistakes that I could hear!) impressed the heck out of me. I also really like the tones he's getting out of everything; especially the piano (and the Spanish guitar interlude was very nice as well). But that's just what I think, what do you guys think?

Heh...

I only get one plug-in? How about one that can sample and loop Kenny? ?

Still won't forgive them for St. Anger though... ?

It's its own when it wants to be it's own! ?

Makes sense, they did have five songs they wanted to play after all! ?

Foreigner - Feels Like the First Time

The Cure - Boys Don't Cry

Or... ??? ?

I actually never looked to see if there was a link! Apparently, I also have a weird sense of humor... ?

The way things are going, I'm not confident enough to predict that 2023 will happen.

The limit hasn't changed, but everything you've ever uploaded counts towards the total. 'Tis why I always link to things I've uploaded to one of my websites (or something I find on the Internet).

I'll go with Shana Halligan from Bitter: Sweet.

Hmm... Just because you can? ?

There's a keyboard for that! ?

Here's a few signs that we are being dumbed down to oblivion!

When I did recording and mixing, I started with near-field monitors, then used headphones, then used PA speakers and, if I was really going to do it correctly, I would have played it in my car.

Me: "If I ran, would you chase me?" Officer: "Of course!" Me: "Ok! I'll run slowly." ?

Yeah, right! ???
