I just love the keybed on my pa900 and hope My new pa1000 has the same keybed. Just right not psr toylike and not piano touch.

I agree - the PA900 keybed is also semi weighted, and I expect the 1000 to be the same ... whenever we get 'em!
I can't really call the 900 a mid level instrument. I put it in the pro category, more like a Lincoln, than a Bentley (4x).
The MOTL would be the PA300, I think - much more scaled down.

No arranger keyboards. I do over 30 Christmas parties fr companies at a local country club. Usually, it;s one hour before dinner or lunch. Luckily, there is a part-time preacher who is on the wait staff. He and his son move the B-3 between floors.

Regular gig is 4 nights a week.

WHEW! Now where is that Grinch suit?

Nothing out of the ordinary thus far, with a few yet to be played ... but LAST year, while playing for a religious group dedicated to the Blessed Mother Mary, a Priest was invited to sing a song ... as he was introducing the song, I felt that I was familiar with the history he was talking of and soon realized he was going to sing an Italian Christmas carol that my mother and her parents used to sing every year, and I subsequently learned it ... As he started singing I got chills up my arms thinking back to those days ... I began to accompany him, and this year at that same function we performed it together once again ... Here is the Carol, as sung by the master ...

Have a 2 hour Christmas special this afternoon. Still cramming, but have some nice stuff this year. Also, this is my maiden voyage with the MX61. I've been working it in, especially the Christmas tunes. Will be fun and challenging.....yikes

Just took a 1/4 inch layer of ICE of my car ...
Fortunately, after running the car engine for a while it came off in sheets ...
I'm REALLY beginning to dislike Winter here in the frozen North ...
