Well I heard Metheny has commissioned one. Meanwhile we always have Bela all in the best of taste. Dig that shirt.

After the Orchestrian conked out at the Barbican I think Metheny might think twice before ukeing it. In fact I think the Orchestrian, Luddite that I am, should be banjoed.
Well yes - it's a bit bizarre to see all that huge array of instruments (on Youtube) all playing away with no-one sitting at them. A technological miracle (when it works) BUT - what's the point? I'd rather listen to one bloke playing an acoustic instrument, without any gizmos and not even any electricity.
