I like the idea of being able to stand up, move around, hear the amps.

I was a little sceptical at first, wondering if such a simple device would feel comfortable and provide enough support, but after testing it out on a few gigs this last week I must admit that it works very well.
The lap steel was steady as it could be and I had no problems at all,- and this was the first time I've ever tried wearing a lap steel like this.
It's such a relief to finally have the same freedom to move around as I have when I play guitar, and not the least to get away from the (loud) monitors and amps.

Here are some pics of it in action, at a gig I did with Tom Principato and his "Powerhouse" band two days ago:
