Nobody gives a damn what you USED to do, especially as it wasn't playing (there are karaoke singer forums where you would be GOD! Which is what I feel you need, from what you post).

A washed up, retired, has been imitator of another, far more successful singer is EXACTLY who needs to come here and tell us (from his perspective of being unable to play) what our mistake is in not choosing the same equipment as him!

As I said, were I to beard you in your den, say a singer's forum, and admit I couldn't sing, needed Auto-Tune on everything, and had to punch in on every line, I don't think you would be particularly impressed, no matter HOW well I played keyboards, or who I played with (my list of credits includes many of the industry's greats). And if I verbally abused you while still admitting I couldn't sing, your patience would run extremely thin.

Mine has run out.

In future, I will not be responding to anything you post. I hope that you have the class to not take this as an opportunity to shoot me in the back, but, well, let's just see...


Look at me in the eyes.....
Bitter? Washed up? What exactly is that? Imitator..Yep. It wasn't my dream but it tool me places few performers will ever see, I played for crowds people like you dream of. Playing with musicians who could probably play circles around you. I Understand your bitterness and am not offended by it. I have put up with a lot worse (imagine that).

I am impressed with ANYONE who can earn a living playing music no matter what they use in that regard. I am not impressed with some who is constantly dissing those who post opposing opinion. There are one or two of you guys on every forum. You see, you have no idea how well I play. I may play far better then I will admit. The wife thinks so. I am a humble person. I have much higher standards of a PLAYER Because I worked with the BEST players. People come into the store I demo a keyboard and they think I'm a pianist....LOL. It's all relative. Try humility sometime you might like it and have more friends. Who else would admit to earning a living imitating someone else. I don;t find that as much of a stretch as An Arranger player imitating a whole band. Ya think?
