It's more to do with my rather "less than subdued" stage mannerisms I used (and probably still would if I were still playing live). Seeing old crummy video footage of myself onstage brings tears of laughter and winces in pain as I realise why things hurt now when they never used to. Problem being is that it's part of the way I play, if I'm "into" the tune, I can't sit/stand still :) Doesn't present too much of a problem at the moment as most of my playing is seated while recording, but in the likely event I return to live playing, I may need a stand like that anyway if I'm playing bass and some guitar parts. Plus the guys in hair metal bands back in the late 80s always had those stands for the acoustic intros to those big power ballads. I always wanted to feel like a member of Skid Row :) Simon Kean --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Shallow End Swimming (Post-Rock) - http://mp3.com/shallowendswimming Ulcerate (Alternative/Industrial) - http://mp3.com/ulcerate
