Haven't seen them on stage yet and I thank you for the warning.

There's no surer way of looking like a tit on stage then by playing a guitar and having a trumpet sound come out.

LOL so true

You need to give it a minute - he really looks like much more of a tit when a piano comes out.

Timpani at 2:56 are my favorite! Also the dramatic arm gesture after the orch hits at 3:20

The real problem with guitar synths is that they fall into the same category as the keytar, the Chapman Stick, the Moog Guitar, and now the Eigenharp. They are all good ideas on paper, but seemingly all the people who play one a) look like dorks, b) take themselves way too seriously, and c) make terrible music.
