I've been a big fan of FM since 1986.

Had tickets to go and see them live a couple of months ago but was ill so I couldn't make it :(

That's too bad.....They look like they put on a great live show....Like I said I just found out about them the other day by watching a youtube video of someone selling a Sony 48 track digital reel to reel....They were demoing the recorder by playing back an FM session on it....The guys vocals jumped out at me like Journey or Foreigner and I really wanted to find out more on that merit alone.....Here's that video if your interested....moon http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g-2TA3Ug6uQ

This a very old video of them. Don't think it's the same band though.

Now this is what I call Kronos in the spotlight and this type of music is what I wish I could play. The problem is finding other like minded players. Check out the keyboard rig at 00:40.

I do know that this music doesn't appeal to most people, but I love it!
