--> I saw Merzbow in Osaka some weeks ago and he used a EMS Synthi A on stage! A synth from the early 70's.

I thought you guys'd be interested in the pics.

djugel - David Cockerell would pwn your face for that!!

but technically its a little VCS3 in a case, and the VCS3 was '69 so, you get partial credit.

Saw him in Tokyo a few weeks back, though I couldn't see his gear. Thanks for the good flickr pic, interesting!

in case you ddidn't know, synthis are still in production at what i'd call a reasonable price (it's quite high, but it's an awesome synth...).
