Far form it, I've told people in the past I refuse to perform anything for them, but I'm no longer trying, I'm succeeded.
You honestly think all these bands in the charts today give a damn about what you think of their music, all they want is money, and sales, someone will buy their music, and they don't care who.
If anything, it shows a lack of understanding of music, not realising I'm a musician, I do it for the same reasons the people in the charts do, pure hard cash, oh, and the fact you could always join a private music corperation and put a request in for one of my CD's or DVD's.
In all reality, that makes me more of a musician, and the fame is important, if you don't want fame, you'll just be a nobody gigging in little pubs all your life, instead of a stage in front of thousands of people, your fans, and,(in a few cases for me), important people such as Sir Teddy Taylor MP.
You think if you asked Fred Durst or someone why they do music, it ain't because they want to, it's because of money.
I do it because I want to, over the past 17 years, but what you think I'd rather do, work in a corner shop for £5 per hour, or play the keyboard for £50p per hour, drive a Ford Escort, or drive a BMW Z4 and TVR T350, wear a shop suit, or wear tailored Armani, it is very much about money.
And as for Yamaha sounding naff, I ain't talking about the little £200 quidjobs that you're mate without a degree in music from Guild Hall London has got, I'm talking about industry flag-ship class mo-fo keyboards costing £3,500, I would buy your mate one so he knows what he's talking about, but I'm doing some alpha and beta tests for some music programs and 2 websites at the moment, and I'm getting paid more than minimum wage too.
As for editing Yamaha sounds, it's impossible as they use MegaVoice technology, which is encrypted into the device, and only exists on 2 Yamaha product, you're probably just thinking of SG Synth stuff you got on your tack, products have come a long way since the stone age.
I used to hate Yamaha products myself, Technics used to be at the front of the music world, until they ceased making products, but now I prefer Yamaha, and as for them being naff, they're the worlds largest manafacturer of keyboards and electric organs.
May I suggest you do your studying before flying off the handle, 'cos there's so many mistakes in those statements, I'll be making the head honchos of Yamaha and Technics/Panasonic laugh for ages at the next seminar.
Unfortunatly, I wasonly able to find a hosted picture of the Tyros 1, since the Tyros 2 is only a few weeks old, they're probably a few and far between for images, (especially as Yamaha was sueing people who put up the pictures, lol).
If you think the T2 is expensive, you can get these pre-owned for around £2, 000, not much for me, but for anyone who doesn't know squat about music, it'll seem llike a lot, so you can see why I'm in it for the money as well, £3,500 keyboards don't fall from the sky into my outstreatched hands.
