Re: FAVORITE LIVE LOOPERS: a new list

A journalist who doesn't know of David Torn, but knows Eddie Vedder 
(which I have never heard of btw...) should be told an allegory:
If you would want to write about electric guitarists, and have never 
heard about Jimi Hendrix, and need some explanation, the likeliness, 
that the kids of your average reader know more about the issue than you, 
is too obvious. Better let someone else write about it, to prevent him 
from getting into an embarrassing situation...
Give them the list, but advice them to let Per write the article... ;-)

Another thought about this list of fame: Imagine you should list famous 
pianists, any list would be more of a personal reference, and would be 
far from being complete, in the contrary, a complete list would be 
unbearable. This is a clear sign, that the piano is an established 
instrument.
We are heading into the state of looping being an established 
instrument, because a complete list is as likely to be too big, as 
incomplete...
