not to detract from their efforts but remember that the bigger well funded
bands such as Radiohead have synth techs whose job it is to set up, program,
maintain, repair and break down and all the keyboards for a gig...so while
taking analog synths on the road IS commendable, it is alas the poor techs
who get none of the limelight...
