I used to be envious of those pop bands that had the money and the excuse to buy the best keyboards synthesizers.  I mean, a piano can make beautiful music, but the sound that can be generated from a  Roland is something else to behold.  The range is way beyond what a piano can belt out for one.  And the sounds capes are almost as varied as your imagination – from violin to jungle sounds.  Having a keyboard like that is still kind of a dream of mine, even if it is only on the back-burner for now.
