There was a group up here that consisted of two guys, both with guitars, one acustic with a great pick-up and the other with an electric. One guy also had a keyboard hooked up to a laptop. He had thousands of midi files in the laptop, and they kicked off each song with the midi, filled in with the guitars and vocals, and the keyboard/guitar player would often switch between the guitar and the keyboard. They were great entertainers, did mostly 50/60s stuff, packed the bars where they played, everyone danced and they were booked solid--7 days a week. Something you might want to consider!

Come on up to Bossier City in January and you can get some pointers from some of the folks that do this for a living.
