The 80's


The years, not the temps, though our temps have been mainly in the 80's for highs. Sleeping with the windows open at night....

So in the 80's they produced a keyboard, the Casiotone MT100 or some such. I found one getting ready to be tossed at the therapy center, it was up in the loft covered in dust and deemed broken. I said, not so fast, and snagged it. I finally bought some batteries for it and it works fine. Now there is not a musical bone in my body so the entertainment value of this keyboard is virtually null for me, but I thought I would test it out on some lips, horsey lips that is!

I displayed it to Ari and Spirit today and they are quite talented! Ari has a very interesting style and I bet he could pick out a tune in no time. Spirit is into I think jazz and likes to get some riffs going across the keys! Too funny! I will try to get some pictures or a video clip to share. I need to set it up in such a way that they can't toss it and step on it. I have been holding it in my arms to let them practice. I bet the neighbors think I am a terrible pianist, lol!
