hey hey !
Have you still got the original boys choir ?....It´s one of my favorite memories from the first progfest....And we thought the trumpet sounded a bit tired and odd.....
Glad to see that noone replied seriously to the Watcher of the skies thing....The list is in good health...
Concerning the Birotron thing...Does it sound similar to a Orchestron....?
// Mattias
And yes....I´ll be in Los Angeles in March....Definitely a good time for buzzing and humming....I am picking up an Optigan so I might need some tech-help...Thinking about doing some kind of Choptigan operation...I think Jordrök really should have benefited from using maybe theOPtigan disc Organ sing-along instead of that Churchorgan ( Worlds biggest accordion 1993 )...
