I used to go "walkabout", akin to the Angus Young trip, along, of course, with my trusty wireless system! As for the keytar, Ridiculous, nah, more likeincredibly stupid looking! It's you frustrated keyboard droids, attempting to be like us guitar gods... Man, it just ain't gonna happen! Axe men rule!!!

Yes. Having said that, I think it's the most fun I've had on stage, though it cost me a job as the guitarist didn't like it when I out-soloed him. You string players are such delicate flowers (highly strung?). It's jealousty really - it gets boring standing behind a stack of boxes and wires all night. Best wishes.

I play a Keytar for part of my live show, it's the Roland AX1 using external expansions as there are no sounds on board the AX1. I thought Roland was going to impress with the new AX Synth, but it's not only over priced at around £899 mark, it's also awful sounding with hardly any guitar patches. Roland and Yamaha really need to up there game, they are simply churning out variations of the same old Keyboard technology from years gone by. Roland have upped their game regarding guitarists and technology, The Roland VG99 processor is brilliant for guitarist, creating all types of guitar sounds, surely Roland could adapted so the virtual technology responded with say a dedicated keytar Controller. Stevie Wonder was over in the UK a Week or so ago, he played at Glastonbury (a big music festival over here). He started the show by playing a Keytar, he played it quite well,, but it didn't have the guitar sound that someone of his legendry status deserves. Maybe the guitar has too many sound variations to be created convincingly by a keytar or the likes.

That's probably the most convincing guitar engine i've heard, specially when ran through some good guitar fx pedals or plugs. If you've heard/used them, what do you think of them?

We're miles away from capturing the versatility of a real guitar. I know this because I can't play guitar and keep looking for convincing ones. Phil is one of those musicians who plays many instruments at professional standard, I'm sure the drums would be real if he had the right acoustic sounding room to set them up in. The guitars are real and the bass guitar is also real, however, he has a digital wife that he simply plugs in and she sings in perfect pitch with auto quantising. I just can't help myself, I start off seriously enough? well, off to get my brain defragged.
