ROTFLMAO

You thnk that seat is uncomfortable? In the 80s I competed in a triathlon called the Liberty to Liberty. It started with a swim in the Hudson off Liberty State Park ( tetanus shots were required). Then we had a police escort to Sayreville NJ, then the just under 100 mile bike race across the state of NJ into Phily where you then ran 5 miles. Took me 8 hours just for the bike segment. Below is a photo of they type seat on sat on. The Roc n Soc is like an easy chair compared to the bike seat

For those of us with 76's or larger, I have always felt disappointed with the choice in benches (not stools, which allow no side to side movement). By and large, all I have seen is X-type benches, which by their very nature get unstable as you slide down to the extremes (and they are never as wide as a piano or organ bench).

Has anyone seen a lightweight folding piano bench durable enough for day to day gigging? Something with a leg at each corner, rather than the unstable X-type...

I just use whatever chair they have available at the gig.. and I bring one of these with me everywhere just in case to boost up the padding or metal chair..works great!
