OOO - Watermelon Man!

Love the talking clavinet he's using on the Kronos, then he goes and plays a Roland AxSynth after that. I've got one of those, but it seams I only play it on one or two songs so I rarely bring it out to gigs.

crap - to have Herbie and Vinnie C playing at my birthday party. I wish there was a better camera viewpoint.

Anyone know who is playing bass?

The acoustics in that room suck. I HATE playing rooms like that.

I hope to God someone has a recording from the MIX!!!

LOVE HERBIE!!

Looks like he is using the AxSynth just as a controller for the KRONOS

Ugh...still that same horrible 90's brass sound. Rolling Eyes

IMHO, the Clavinet doesn't sound that different from previous Korg emulations, either. (If it really is from the KRONOS). Or, at least it sounds a lot like the OASYS he used to have before.

Either Nathan East or James Genus, both were on his previous tours.

the audio in that vid is low-fi. I would not go out on a limb on judging
