Brings back memories of seeing Bob O Donnell at a Claude Gordon Camp in Michigan in 1975. Bob did all the demo playing and at the time was his prize student.

Very interesting discussion. Thank you! **If you could just use the original sound source from Mr. Poper like in the beginning it would've been much clearer!

You have no idea how technical that was to pull off. My media team of myself and two other guys practiced months in advance. We had to do something called a mix minus and the challenge was Roy being able to hear the panel and myself and not have echo and everyone in the room to hear well too. I wish we could have captured things on Roy's end to edit it in later. I might be able to extract audio from one of the sources in the Tricaster files. I'm just thankful that the thing worked as well as it did and the main points of the content were heard. It was fun for me to host and moderate. Take a look at my purtle.com website for more to be posted.
