Get outta my frequency range!

Meh... I just have visions of people leaving the dance floor whenever my hands start creeping up above the 9th fret or so. If I start to feel the need to do that, I just let the keyboard do his thing, and I either pick up a percussion instrument or go get a beer... so long as I still get paid the same for the gig...

I understand if for you music = monney
 
Ever had that one band member who always encroaches into your domain, the low end? ... my frequency nemesis, the keyboard/synth player!

On a keyboard skanking rhythm, he always plays a pedalled bass note which not only cuts me out, but creates a heinous muddy sound. Or a extremely low (lower than my B!) pulsating synth bass line that, again, cuts me out.

...

Maybe require him to limit his playing to a 61-key instrument. He'll never get below a C.
