I'll be in CT and NYC for the holidays/new years, and may be playing a bit, so feel free to e-mail or call if you'd like. -Hope you and yours are doing absolutely wonderfully! Happiest of holidays to ya. <smile> Smiles, Cara At 07:10 PM 12/18/03 -0500, you wrote: >> From: Andy Morris [mailto:apmorris59@hotmail.com] > >> How many loopers here use MIDI?
