Hi!

Compared to others on this list, I am relatively new to looping (I've  
been at it around a year now).  The performances at the Y2K7 Loopfest  
were fantastic.

One performer who kept things simple was Genie.  He played a guitar  
and a loop pedal (someone chime in with the make).  That's it.  I  
think most folks who were there would agree that he pushed the loop  
pedal to the max and delivered a great set.  He played the loop  
station like an instrument along with his guitar, often alternating  
between the two so fast that it was hard to follow.

So yes, start simple and make a lot of music -- sounds like a good plan to 
me.

You might want to check out the Loopers-delight website under "tools  
of the trade" for ideas about various looping equipment.

All the best to you!
