Sorry to disagree Pete, but it's a horrible picture. I know you are a 'noir'
band, but that is almost TOO noir for me to make out anything... More flash
or lights or something please...:)

Still, it is interesting to see an accordian being used in the same band an
AN1x. I am now going to spend some serious time finding a reason to use my
AN1x with my folkie Scrumpy & Western band, The Mangledwurzels. My job with
covering for accordian and tuba sounds (as well as piano, banjo, penny
whistle and occassional sound effects) on keys alongside a guitarist with a
kick-drum.

To date I have limited my input to mostly GM sounds from an old Korg X3 and
a Roland XP-30, while the AN1x stays at home gathering dust (sorry for the
heresy!!!). Maybe I should be trying to recreate a proper accordian sound on
the AN1x. It's either that or eventually I buy an accordion!

But, speaking of accordion, if you go to www.myspace.com/bellvuejubilee and
look down in the comments, there's a really nice
pic of me playing my accordion standing behind my an1x, it looks so pretty
with the lighting there at that show, probably from the camera's flash. Just
shows the an1x is even a little sexy looking on stage. Also, all the organs
in the tunes on that page are being done with the an1x.
