No, but he sounds like a self absorbed douche that loves to paint a grandiose picture of himself than he actually might be.
Isn't there someone here who use to (or still does) play piano at a dueling piano bar downtown? Can't remember who it was.
get yourself a guitar man. Play a nice bluesy backing track, get some sick bends in there and just noodle around. It's so much fun.
Keyboards with multiple non-piano sounds come to mind. Seems someone who already has piano skills could do extra well with it.
Definitely piano. I would love to learn to play. I just love the beauty of it...especially in rock songs. Part of the reason I love The Black Crowes and The Avett Bros so much. Throw a banjo in there and I’m hooked.
Guitar bar-none. You can't bend, or put whammy notes in piano songs. Piano is like golf, you kind of need some $ to play, or learn.
Check out the Linnstrument by MPC creator Roger Linn; You are correct on the last point, you'll pay out the ARSE for this kind of "instrument"..
