I feel singularly qualified to write about geeks and geeky things, as I have devoted the greater part of my life to being one. With that in mind, I feel it is my duty to announce to the world that there is a digital accordion.
End of statement.
I was in downtown Salt Lake City last night, and passed a throng of people spellbound by the strains of Blue Danube - but I could hear an orchestra, piano, flute, you name it - all coming from, it turns out, an accordion. But this was not Rogers moms accordion: this puppy took 120v a/c, had foot pedals, and output through left and right speakers with a dedicated subwoofer. I heard a version of Beer-Barrel-Polka that nearly made me soil myself. It was incredible.
Well, incredible if you're the kind of guy who already owns a metallic-orange electric banjo. Which I do.
