---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Mark, In addition to Wim's excellent advice, Dave used to travel with several different electronic keyboards as well. Some of these did not like what seemed to me to be already pretty "tight" octaves. Times have changed, but that might bear checking out. Also, these things do tend to get thumpy-sounding bass strings, which can be misleading. Best of luck; and, if you can, do stay and see/hear the show - Dave is a good performer. Best regards.
