Insane in the membrane ! Todd thats pretty darn tootin, can you read music ?play Willy Nelson on that space guitar ! If you had a grand piano not sayin you dont but,would it become firewood ?on that other video I think the sheet music was upside down cause it was all atonal as hell downright frightening! Did Paganini get his freak on while stroking his viola ? give thought and answers please .

Todd is a remarkable guitar player and equally remarkable guitar builder, why would he play Willie Nelson tunes on a Ztar, it's a midi controller, your asinine "would your piano become firewood" remark could be leveled at pretty much any synth player in the world (Pat Metheny/Joe Zawinul) so in your world we lose "Are You Going With Me"

Music is music, if it's good, it's good! it matters little how you arrive at the finished article, every song in your collection is synthetic representation

Your so serious it was humor, he made the ztar sound frazin wise so much like piano phrasing that it was a question whether a real piano was needed .I know Todd ,so I know he could play anything. A long time ago I was at Todds house and he was playing Nicolo P. on bass and he used his delay to speed it up he then physically played at and unhuman speed on that bass that same music. Todd is amazing hes also funny .Give me some credit for being funny and yes Willy on ztar would be grand try it .

I wasn't sure if you were serious or not, as I had posted this video and Todd didn't have the right of reply I felt I had to defend him just in case you were serious

I have had people say to me almost verbatim the same comments and they were very serious

As for you song collection, I was just pointing out that if you're not actually at a live performance of anything, all you have left is facsimile, be it cylinder, tape, record or digital.

I admit I maybe went a bit far defending Todd :o)

Todd is my brother. I'm going to see him in a couple weeks. He is an amazingly talented person. I'll try to talk him into posting more of his videos on the net. He has some amazing videos of him playing.

Hey check out Avenged Sevenfold influencing kids here on you tube youll see what I was refering to in saying Carsons ,video hes only six in this video and already a young hopeful .

By the way every song in my collection are you referring to the backing track of Carsons song?my triton tracks ? synths are cool we need them for texture.
