I agree ... perhaps they play whatever the original key is, possibly due to an inability/lack of desire to transpose???
Maybe you should ask, and if that's the reason, offer to transpose ...
t.

Tony- That was my FIRST suggestion!

That would've been a funny thing..."Oh man it's so hard to transpose the song to C scale..so we decided to just play it in C#!!"

I think they also tranposed the song to another key G# so the singer could sing it too or something...i don't know..kinda confusing for me.

I might just have to haul up my Triton Studio and play with that instead LOL.
