Does anyone know a keyboard tech in the Tampa bay and surrounding areas? The key player in my band has a Yamaha MX61 that needs some work.

Lighthouse Point, Broward County here. New bassist. New to Florida.
Indeed - welcome! As I hail from Minnesota, I think you’ll like the winters here. The summers get pretty hot though, especially down south!
South Fort Myers here. Finally away from the oppressive, tax hungry state of Maryland.
You will definitely find the winters here different! Summers are hot and rainy too. I'm about a half hour north of you in Palm Beach county.
Originally from SE Wisconsin. I know cold. Definitely better weather here.
q1014 hasn’t logged on since 2014 so it might be difficult. I Hope the guy is alright.

I know it isn't SUPER close, but Steve @ m7 guitars is in Sarasota...
FL bassists, check in! How are you all coping with Milton? Hopefully you are somewhere safe and dry.
I am just north of Tampa in Pasco County we are hunkered down
Lakewood Ranch in Manatee County. We're about 15 miles from the Gulf so not in a storm surge evacuation area. Latest track still showing it coming in near the Sunshine Skyway Bridge (now closed) which is about 30 miles north of us. Watching every 'wobble' as it keeps shifting. As someone said it's like being stalked by a turtle. If we're 'lucky' it will weaken a little down to a Cat 3. This is the storm the Tampa Bay area has been dreading for decades. That said we are as prepared as we can be and hoping and praying for the best.
We live in a 55+ community. A bright spot in all of this is the way people are pulling together to help their neighbors. To see a bunch of old guys with bad shoulders and bad knees working together to put hurricane shutters on a neighbor's home restores your faith in humanity.

Was like that in my neighborhood a few years ago during a rare winter storm with a couple weeks of power and water problems. Wore my chainsaw out helping a team of us open some streets. Stay safe.
