I'm jealous. If I played upright bass, I'd gladly make it fit; something else would have to stay behind! At least it's possible! Alas I play piano. You can't imagine how badly I wish I could join in on some of those music fest campsite jams. But a piano just just doesn't pack well into a Westy, and is difficult to carry from campsite to campsite. Electronic keyboards are no better, since these are usually acoustic jams in the middle of a field with no electricity; wandering up with a cheesy Yamaha plastic keyboard with 4 inch speakers and D batteries just wouldn't cut it. I wind up just enjoying the music and playing "air piano" on my lap. :-)
