Who is using the Kronos?

Post by jeremykeys »

Besides Jordan Rudess, who else is using the Kronos in a high profile gig? I'm mainly wondering about players who really tear it up live. Anybody have any ideas?
If music is the food of love, play on and play loud!
Gear: Kronos 73, Wavestation EX, Polysix, King Korg, Monotron and Monotron Duo, Minikorg, Moog Grandmother, my very old MiniKorg, 4 acoustic and 9 electric guitars, 1 Ibanez 5 string bass, a Steel guitar, a bunch of microphones, 2 pairs of studio monitors and other very cool toys, 1 wife and 4 cats and a lava lamp!

I have seen his recent performances and haven't seen a Kronos anywhere. He seems to be spending more time on the acoustic these days.
