I am going to be on stage again soon and I need to polish up my set up. Does anyone have a source for a good stand for the chapman stick, or NS stick? The idea is to put the stick at a height where I could either play it on the stand, or just pick it up and hang it on my belt when I need to play it the regular way...

That's great for those who can afford the time to do it. Some years
ago I only used home built Windows XP PC's and I used to set them up
with three or four bootable partitions. Two identical for the studio
music applications and one for email, office work etc. All my
documents, working files, were saved in other partitions or better on
external drives so that I could access the work docs form any system.
If I was recording a client and got struck by computer issues I didn't
have to loose time by solving the issue on the spot, I simply
restarted and booted the Windows XP form the backup partition and then
opened the song projekt from the external drive. Solving the issue
could be dealt with later on when the client had left. I liked that
system and it was great fun to research the best music pc components
and build a new box now and then. With today's Apple boxes I tend to
put a little more time into actual musical activities and that also a
good thing.
