No, cassp, this is what Gary is saying..
anyone that hauls heavier equipment around, just because he or she thinks is better, is an IDIOT. If you sincerely believe that lugging that heavier crap around makes you a better performer/musician/entertainer you're living in the dark ages. Nobody gives a damned if your keyboard has 76 keys, 61 keys, 88 keys, of 200 keys
It's not that we mind lugging the extra weight, it's that we mind being called idiots for doing so, when, to all but the blind and close-minded, there IS an appreciable difference between mid-line and TOTL equipment.
It's probably the same reaction Gary would have if someone heckled him for hauling around that PSR and speakers, when he could have entertained just as well with a Melodica! It IS, after all, much lighter... The audience doesn't give a damn if it has 61 keys or 15... Do they?
I am not lugging around heavier equipment because I THINK it makes me sound better. I am hauling it around because I KNOW it makes me sound better. Excuse me for wanting that....
