I could still play, I don't need to see the keys.  I also worked for a while at a resource center for the blind, so I have a working knowledge of Braille and a decent knowledge of tools and tech to assist blind folks.

I love that you're a keyboardist.

I wonder if you'd have any fun playing with one of these:





It's such a beautiful sound.

I'd definitely rather go blind than hear strange and beautiful sounds like this again.

Ah yes, I love the sounds that the Andromeda makes.   Heart    But even tho' I trained on a monster Moog modular and a Synclavier - [Image: System_55.jpg]
