It’s an unfortunate law of the universe that guys always look stupid playing the keytar.

Jean Michel Jarre may have come pretty close to looking cool with a keytar, but he’s got that French je ne sais quoi on his side.

Guys can look cool playing the drums, the electric guitar, the saxophone, the bass, the congas, keyboards, the theremin - all sorts of instruments. But looking cool playing the keytar poses a unique challenge.
