    That's very well put and I agree with it wholeheartedly.
    After seeing a couple of bands live recently in the North of England (Bluefoot Project
    and Kava Kava) I was impressed enough to buy some of their material - although they're
    live acts they use a lot of samplers and tape loops, etc. Both live and on CD they
    use technology to get what they want and don't sound any the worse for it - quite the contrary.

    Love, Peace & Bananas
