I go back and forth on whether or not I want it as part of my shows. I like the way it sounds and I think it adds to the overall sound but I tend to feel like I connect a bit more with the people listening when I'm not playing it.

As I mentioned, it's tough to play it standing up. I'm mostly a stay at home dad during the school year and then I play some music during the summer and even though I practiced with the Porchboard quite a bit before my summer shows started, I had to quit using it after just a couple of shows. Lots of hip and knee trouble this time around.

I've never had that big a problem with it so I think it's all the time off and then jumping back into 2-3 hours a night for many nights in a row.

So I'm currently off the Porchboard! But it does sound really good!

Matt
