I saw Keith Emerson gig an A100 to death one nite. It almost fell on me
when he spun it like a top on one corner and let it bounce.

I never knew Keith Emerson had superhuman strength! And how did he keep it
plugged in through this stunt?

Didn't he use a specially reinforced and lightened L100?
I wasn't at that gig obviously, but once saw a video of him throwing one
around... Damm, it took four people to move mine, perhaps I should call him
next time. On second thoughts, maybe that's not such a good idea, I want it
to be in one piece afterwards!

That was an L-100. He still had to be pretty strong, though. And it
didn't stay plugged in.

Well then, you'll be paying closer attention from now on, won't you?
