Donny, don't start this silly crap all over again. I merely stated that IN MY OPINION, singing over a commercially made midi file, is essentially, karaoke (complete, in some cases, with displayed lyrics). I could care less what you and other "REAL DEALS" (although I'm surprised to see YOU use the word "Real") do in your club act (whatever works for you, I say). But for a exercise meant to feature arranger keyboards/synths/workstations, and their players, I didn't see singing over a SMF as the best format to use towards that end. It has nothing to do with "REAL DEALS" doing it all (gosh, that's starting to sound familiar).
Look, I don't mind you criticizing me on the issues, but your post sounds like little more than rabble-rousing. Hey, it may work; let's wait and see who springs to your defense. Probably the same ones shaking in their boots over 'death panels'
.
BTW, tell Fran I said Hi. I miss him (I'm sincere about that). At least with him, it was just friendly sparring and kidding around.
