Has he ever sold anything from the keyboard room? Do they wheel these
units into an adjacent recording studio when desired? I need to learn
Japanese and read the fine print before going 'off' on this one. At
least Kean's Audities gives the ∗museum pieces∗ a bit of excercise &
the opportunity to be on recordings. I'm kind of from the camp
that 'Trons are living breathing examples of expression...to the
point where I catch myself saying hello and goodbye to my M-400 when
I enter and leave the room. A different kind of fanticism, I guess!
The pics look like a climate controlled storage facility. At least
all the 'trons are in the same room so they can talk to one other. I
bet when the lights go out, it's party central.

Reminds me of the story of a vintage keyboard the members of Mother
Mallard's Portable Masterpiece Company had. Kean wanted it, and so
did the Smithsonian; and the band opted to give it to Kean as he
vowed to keep it maintained and active.

Ryo's shipping bills...I bet that's something to see.

(I'm tellin' ya--I'd like to know exactly what L. Ron Hubbard is
going to do with his Mk2...)
