Re: looping for electric piano?
I ran the audio for a show he played at one of our conferences. We had beers afterwards

Yeah when they play live they build the songs in front of you like that... They love Austin, I've seen them with Andrew Bird pitchin in a couple times too...

Re: looping for electric piano?
the building tracks onstage thing is part of my solo looping aesthetic as well. i love the way they swap instruments as the recording goes on, and the way the one guy plays rhythmic sax like a Steve Reich arrangenent.

Re: looping for electric piano?
I would just loop the piano's line out sound, not the MIDI, with a pedal looper. I specifically use an Akai Headrush with my digital piano(which I believe is what your friend has) and synths as well, though the DL4 could be a good option too. Or even the Boss RC20/30 if he wants to save presets. I can see where he's coming from with the midi; using a high end piano emulator to sample garageband's sounds is like playing a 60's Les Paul into one of those headphone amplifiers.
