10 buck drum machine and some Shiraz
I bought a keyboard at Target this weekend. Why? Not because I know how to play the piano, but because the little plastic wonder had a drum machine function. It cost me 10 buckaroos, and tonight I would have paid $100 after the fun it incited.
I play the guitar. Mostly mellow stuff: Wilco, Willie, R.E.M. and the occasional try at Journey. But tonight, I was a one-man band with my new mini-keyboard. I turned "You Were Always On My Mind" into a pretty sweet hip-hop tune. I played the first song I learned on the guitar (R.E.M.'s Country Feedback - check out the audio sample) against a samba beat.
Best $10 I've spent in a long, long time.

You are going to turn into Ross on Friends with his Casio :)
that's what i was talking about...
"Country Feedback"
Wow.
I have a tape around here somewhere with that on it circa 1995.
Bring your drum machine. I'll get you a gig in Chicago.
April beat me to the Ross crack...
Andy, can I start a band with you that covers only Hall & Oates tunes? I mean, those guys were so NOT gay that I think we could pull it off.
