Remember these? I'm also trying to find pics of the Donnie & Marie microphone that you could sing into and it would broadcast your voice over your radio There was also this cool keyboardish thing, it looked like a white stick with a triangle at the end, and it had plastic rainbow buttons all down the handle. You could play music on it. I can't remember the name of it though. | |
