Thanks for posting the pics sunster. It looks like a good time was had by all.

That Mo' ES is something isn't it? If you don't mind an arrangerless Keyboard the Motif ES would be a great option. There is basic accompaniment on the ES in the Voice, Pattern, and Performance mode which is helpful. But an Arranger it is not. With the use of the ISS "Integrated Sampling Sequencer" a person could put together a fully orchestrated song; play it back, sing vocals on top of it, output it to a computer and record the whole mix to a Multi-track recording software and you would have a complete solution to creating your own songs. Of course you can do the same thing with an Arranger using the Sequencer for laying down tracks, etc.

Best regards,
Mike
