Roland clinic April 29th

Just got the word that a Roland clinic is coming up at Easy Music, Honolulu, HI. 5PM April 29th. The Roland boys will be jammin on the new Roland keyboards and TD9 kit. Anyone in the neighborhood, be sure to stop by.

I was cruising the Easy Music drum dept, testing out the TD12 kit, when one of the drum shop salesman comes up to me and tells me that the Roland reps will be in town on the 29th and that they can answer "any questions" that I might have regarding the Roland V's.

With a wry smile, I asked him if he was familiar with the Vdrums.com site.
His puzzled look was a Big No! So we pirated one of the sales register computers and pulled up the forums. When I left the store, he was still surfing DIY and Showcase with a big Christmas Kid grin.

Now to go back and work him for that TD9 module employee discount
