I was reading "guitpic1's" thread about how to keep dancers from dancing right into your keyboard. For practice, I like to take topics and think of how many practical ways and how many ridiculous ways to solve problems like that.

I'm in ridiculous mode right now.

Buy a cheap console piano with a minimum weight of 600 lbs. Wheel it to the gig on a R&R cart. Set it up backwards on the dance floor (keyboard facing the audience) and set your keyboard on top of it (plenty of room to maneuver in the back of a piano). Take a large sign that says "Abandon all hope, ye who enter here" and put it where the sheet music goes on the piano. If they make it through all that, then ..........spray them with mace!


So......what would be your own "ridiculous" solution to this common problem
