when we play live i don't even bring my esx. being that i scream my head off/while my bass player plays, i just just don't see the point. i record everything onto my digital recorder and bring that instead. for what i do, you'd understand why.
i have incorporated my micro korg into the live sets, playing the occational background keyboards, tho..
i'll post up some video as soon as i edit it into something watchable.

So what you are saying is that you don't think there's a point of playing live,.... when playing live

lol! rereading what i wrote, and your response has me dying of laughter.. it really sounds like what you said... lol!!!!

unfortunately, i can't knob twist when i'm screetching my head off- & i know absolutely no one who's even remotely interested in learning how to use the esx

we make do for the most part tho... i just don't see the point of lugging around another piece of equipment that could get damaged.. you know?

You could just get like a britney spears headpiece mic and some sexy booty pants and sing into that while still be able to play the esx

Rob, what was the piece that fell off your keyboard stand after which you just shrugged at the audience in your youtube video? Classic! If I were you, I'd keep the gear to a minimum on stage. LOLZ!

yea man, i'm one of the most clumsy assholes you will ever find! my day job is in a coffee house, so you can imagine how many people (including myself) have been burned!! lol!!!! the piece of gear that finally went down for the count was my micro korg. i was using this piece of shyte keyboard stand and well, you saw the results. lol!!! i should have taken a pic of it after the show! it was covered in fake blood and sweat. but hey, the little guy can take a beating- still works like a charm... it's just hard to explain to people why the keys are so sticky- hahahahahahahahahahaha!!!
(when i say i love my korg stuff- i MEAN it!) lol!

in all seriousness tho, for what i do- it just isn't necessary to bring tons of gear... i wouldn't ever cheat my audience- i try to do as much stuff as i can to make it as 'live' as possible, but pressing play on my electribe vs. pressing play on my digital recorder is apples & oranges really... (at least for me)
