Thanks Bill!
It certainly was an interesting 57 minutes.  It was actually the bass synth 
that was freaking out.  The pedals were better behaved than usual!  I blame 
that and the bass jack issue on temp./humidity issues.  They'll both be 
getting a check-up anyway.

A fourth on keys would help live, but it would be difficult to add another 
"equal mindshare" into the circus that is the S^3.  Maybe someday I'll get 
my own personal Skip Gildersleeve.
Til then, I will continue trying to ease my burden thru the wonders of 
technology, and I'll keep insisting on fewer numbers w/ keys in the set!  
Yuk yuk yuk....

Also, thanks for your comments on the CD.  We reprazent for Trevor Horn, yo!
