My Favorite "Handy" Keyboard
I was tired of playing 5 octave keyboards. So my friend, Damilola Ayeni (Crazy "Phat Chordist")
advised me to get this: the Yamaha DGX 640. I prefer this to so many models because of the following:
- 7 octaves
- Has its own speakers; no need for a combo, unlike the Motif series
- Full weighted keys
- Less than a thousand Dollars on Amazon.com

10 habits Every Keyboardist MUST Outgrow!
- Looking for the "Transpose" button/function on your keyboard
- Once-in-a-blue moon practice
- Forgetting to pray
- Playing without a Sustain (Damper) Pedal.
- Dwelling on Primary Chords all your life
- Playing solo when playing with a band
- Unnecessarily making jest of up coming keyboardists: let your criticism be CONSTRUCTIVE
- Stopping in the middle of a playing session. Don't you know you are feeding to the console?
- Doing more of runs than chords ALWAYS.
- Coming late to church, service, or a session
- One more: lying that you've scored when you've not
- Another: Listening to a song, and claiming you're scoring. Go and practice note for note. Although, some there are, who score with their head: The Maestros.

Terminologies for drummers
A bass player friend of mine once said, "There is no world no 1 instrumentalist; everyone keeps working on himself. Here's something I found online this morning. Originality of source is attributed below the terminologies. They are:
- X-fill
- Syncopation
- Soca
- Snare Comping
- Sanford Moeller
- Metronome
- Matched Grip
- French Grip
- Traditional Grip
- German Grip
You can post your own terms and links. Afterall, it's an opensource community. Do not forget to place links to content not created by you. One love.
