I « met » fellow frog and musician Yann Le Bihan over on the the OS X Audio forums a while back. I always enjoy his insightful, erudite, and humorous comments in the forum and in our private correspondence, and was very flattered and grateful (being prone to chronic creative self-doubt) when time and again, he has had enthusiastic, encouraging and constructive things to say about my music.
As if that wasn’t enough, having read on sknoblog about the demise of my venerable old Keyboard, he promptly emailed to say he had a MIDI controller keyboard that he didn’t use, and that he would be glad to send it to me.
Which he did. And so the keyboard arrived today, and thanks to his generosity, I am once again fully able to inflict my musical weirdness on the world.
All I can say is wow! and a huge and public Thank You!
You sure can meet great human beings on the Internet.
