Well even the great Stradivarious (spelling) loses its value if its not played.

I don't know anyone who wants to store their gear in a vaccum.

NOthing lasts forever.

Kevin I thought you told me that the Voyager depreciates in Value when I talked about getting a loan to buy one.

Ah hah! You lose one point for contradicting yourself.

Ill allow you to collect your thoughts and bow out respectfully.

lol

(Okay heres one for you Voltor:
Chuck Norris has been spending his time since the early 70's gathering and submitting photos and documents of every synth ever made to interested parties and prospective website developers. He did this all under his pseudonym KEVIN LIGHTNER because he wanted to start from scratch on the publics view of what it really means to be awesome.

He got the Idea from a 60's rock band when he recoiled in horror when he learned that "Derek is Eric."

But Chuck still plays the part today. He shaved his chest hairs and stapled them to his head and learned how to play the keyboard and is rumored to have a shop somewhere in the mountians in California where he plays synths that are not quite as awesome as he because he wires them that way.)


I see right through you Mr. Lightner, if that IS your real name. Hmmph.

Well, only Chuck Norris could have supper with his family and Chuck Norris, so technically, that IS possible. :? Kevin DOES seem to be a bit too awesome for words. He's ALSO the same height as Chuck Norris. Has anyone actually SEEN Kevin Lightner? I've seen his arm on YouTube...it's big and hairy...like Chuck Norris'. I find it interesting that the room didn't explode when Chuck Norris and Kevin were in it. The evidence seems pretty clear to me, EricK! :lol:

You were planning on storing it for 30 years in an isolation chamber?
Sorry. My bad.
I'll learn to ask questions next time... ;-)


Voltor.. somehow I get the impression that when Chuck Norris eventually does die, you're going to sit on the lawn near his grave and wait for the ground to start moving.

No, because if and/or when Chuck Norris does get buried, there will be a massive explosion, which will mark his expulsion from the earth in which he was buried, and a fiery volcanic explosion will soon follow. That is, if they can actually get the coffin into the ground. I have a feeling it will just levitate above the hole. :lol:

That's what I'm thinking, as well. :wink:

Well, as of now, sadly, I only own one Moog synth, my Taurus pedals. What do I like about them? Well...when they are properly amplified, or running through a good PA, they'll do what they were built to do...RUMBLE.

I love your quote, JaseyT. The Taurus III's will not disappoint, as I have faith in the wonderful company known as Moog Music. Also, the Little Phatty has some killer bass, as well...I signed up for the T III's early on just because I could. :lol:

Thanks! That quote comes from the one and only Crow T. Robot.

I agree, the absolute LAST thing I expect is being disappointed in the T3. On the contrary, once mine finally arrives, I'll probably tuck it into bed with me for at least a few nights. :lol:

Ah yes. A fellow MST3K fan. Remember the Conn trumpet episode? We're white, we're white. We're really really white. Great stuff!

I tried sleeping with my LP the first couple nights. I always woke up on the floor, though. :mrgreen:

You bet! MST3K is an all-time favorite of mine. You know, I don't remember the Conn trumpet episode. And if your LP kicked you out of the bed, just imagine in what condition one would wake up (or maybe never wake up again) after trying to snuggle with Taurus pedals.

It's beyond me how I've kept my 1975 T1 set from harming me all this time...

What is your favorite feature about your Moog?
Two things: CV flexibility and user interface design. Lots of power, but easily navigable.
