Well, that's just great, and I wish you well with yours. Best of luck getting it working. You have to have a tape sample for each note you want to play,...
Hey, Now I had a old Jupiter 4, which was worthless as far as playing music, (few keys broken, out of tune, etc) which I think was made by Moog way back in the...
Don't have one, but as long as we are on mellotrons, I had a friend who built one from a kit. Wait, once I wrote that I realized that it was a theremin --...

Tom, thanks for the well wishes. It's working much better than when I got it ( it would barely play) - now I just have a few pitch issues to resolve. I'll...
All, While we take a moment from our busy summers to trash bands of a certain ilk, and wonder why they became so popular, here's an reexample from the weekend....
i was flipping through channels this weekend, when lo and behold, there was duran duran! i had no idea what the performance was for, but now i know it was in...
Thanks, Joe, more chance for me to spout opinions. By coincidence Duran Duran was all that I saw/stumbled upon. First, for a pretty boy band, they looked...

Send us some sound files when it's all working. Maybe you can plunk out a "mello" version of Drive Me To The Park just to keep it on topic. I still can't help...
I must admit that I still have a place in my ear for the first Duran Duran record. Like a supermajority of bands, that is their best stuff. As far as pretty...
The first three Furs records are pretty damn good. Parts of the later stuff is good, but they smoothed out the sound too much IMNSHO. ... And now the...
Hey, middle-aged hipsters: All the bands you guys are talking shit on were the bread and butter of my musical youth. Duran Duran, A Flock of Seagulls, even...
I'd quibble with calling Styx and Journey 80s bands. I remember seeing Styx a couple of times at Century II back in the 70s. I guess they were both able to...

It is their best stuff. But some feel their best was too catchy, too easy, too simple, too empty. As did I. But I can hear them now and just enjoy the catchy...
OK, here we go: I want your educated opinion and/or gut reactions. I created an album of art pics on my myspace account, which is myspace.com/goffrierstudio ...
we're not gonna take it! no, we ain't gonna take it! we're not gonna take it anymore! i wanna rock. ROCK! dee snyder and his triangle-shapes blush KILLS me. ...
"Stroke Me" has probably extended my lifespan by several months. The utter ludicrous-ness (I like the word "ludicrosity") of the tune sends me into a fit of...
Jim, Good point. Just as "back in my day" when old hippies used to want to point out how the 60s bands were great and the 70s bands were shit, they would...

You have a point Jim (and thanks for that video--now I will never forget the phallic thrusting of arms by the band). You have to give props though to Mr....

OK, I'll bite. The same three pictures are being used in the current issue of The Onion in a piece about the death of Captain America, or something like that....
