its this kind of demo that kills arranger sales among younger players but i guess is aimed at the market that can afford tse expensive keyboards. Ths guy has been doing the same demo for the last 10 years. Its the same demohe did for the T1,2,3. The only difference is hat he has put on some more pounds over the years
I doubt seriously that there is a single young player in the audience other than maybe someone that is actually into this kind of stuff! Hard to kill arranger sales to a missing demographic!
Yamaha's Techno Expansion Pak could do wonders if marketed right, though.
I have said for a long time that the arranger manufacturers should sell TWO versions of each arranger. One packed with oldies styles and one packed with modern ones. And next to no crossover. Then sell the missing styles as an expansion pak to the few from each demographic that might want to play outside their age range.
Then you put the modern ones in stores that sell modern gear, and the oldies ones in Mom and Pop piano and organ stores, and Bob's yer uncle! Sales go through the roof!

There's one common denominator here MUSICSTORE, hell why don't they just pack it in, where the hell did you find this Bill, the cutting room floor.. I give in the Wesri one was worse here a Company selling musical products and they can't product a good video with a soundtrack, I know who I won't be buying anything from.

Bill,
Most of us stumble across little nuggets on the internet and we post them so people can share the nuggets, this was not worth posting and I don't find it funny or interesting as many others here. BTW Bill I am not on anything and please don't ask or suggest this again, you didn't even include a funny so I take it you were serious, I don't drink or smoke, maybe I should and then the demo might sound and look good.

I agree with you, its a pity the people who made the video ain't a tenth as good, when we post things like this we assume someone might just be interested, when we post it without a comment good or bad then why do we post it?? I am totally As you say Michael is the best, he has turned out perhaps some of the best works on Yamaha KB and perhaps as a result sold more KB than anyone else.
Woah,.. what happened to him? ......didnt he lose alot of weight is that a recent video?......now gained it all back?....hard to maintain after losing it, sorry to see that,....its a real see-saw. Great player though.
