I've noticed that some of the earlier material (eg.Dream For Me, Pretender, Blackened Crown) has no piano/keyboard. Also, assuming Sherri and Chauntelle have both played guitar since the band began, and since I don't think any of the above mentioned songs contain more than two guitars, did Stacy do anything in the beginning besides vocals? When did she start playing keys?

I don't know exactly when she started playing, but I do remember that Stacy hasn't always been the keys.

I've definitely seen pictures of them from early Moss days that had Stacy playing guitars, at least one of her playing an acoustic. Also on old telescope eyes, during the chorus, I remember seeing that she just sang, she never played keys.

Also there was one little variation they played that had Sherri on keys and Stacy on guitar, I've always wondered which one that was....but I've never known.

In more modern live renditions of Blackened Crown, Stacy plays the acoustic chords on her keys, I'm pretty sure, to start off.

That all being said, it has seemed as if the keyboards were consistently part of their onstage set, even if not on their recordings.

I like them, and you are right, they don't have any keyboards

Often, the keys are barely audible on a song anyway except for certain parts.

In one article I read, it said she started out on drums, but then switched to guitar. Of course I can't find the article now...

That's true, but not to this extent. Unless she's using a really good guitar sample. Laughing

That's interesting. I remember seeing early pictures of Stacy with a guitar, but I didn't know that was actually during a show.

In the Room Noises pre-production journals it mentions a song called "Good Times" where Stacy and Sherri switch. I wish they'd record/play a song like that.

That's Stacy, isn't it....?

So maybe she did play guitar instead of keys? Or something?
