Joined: January 2006 Posts: 5881 Location: Colorado Rocky Mountains | Having repeatedly experienced dropped or lost picks, pencils, capos, sticky notes, fasteners, expanding clips and other small stuff off the music stand due to insufficient room, I bought from the local hardware store a $3.00 single utensil plastic tray organizer of the type that interlocks with another, sprayed it flat black, then hung it on the bottom shelf of the music stand. The tray’s interlocking lip fits perfectly on the metal gauge of a variety of music stand models and sizes, installs in one second, and is light and transportable. If the tray is loose because the music stand metal is really thin, it can be held in place with one or more 1/2" binding clips. It is now a regular part of my gig bag. Works like a charm! ![]() | ||

Joined: January 2006 Posts: 5881 Location: Colorado Rocky Mountains | The music on the left is something we did a while back. The notes on the right are mine and serve as a transposition of a piece I'm doing this Sunday for a group of madrigal singers. I don't do well turning pages, so I rewrote the piece on a single sheet. It really isn't anything special. The point is to show off the organizer tray! | ||

It is really a small group ensemble of about a dozen voices who are featured every few weeks during the contemporary worship service. GGG, the Gibson banner goes with a bunch of other Gibson stuff surrounding my Gibson guitars. | ||

BTW; anyone know if Tom & Dicky are rehearsing the 40th anniversary of the show yet? We need more family entertainment like that. (speaking of brownies...... :cool: ) | ||
