This bit of advice would apply to any device that you would be thinking of buying with linux in mind. I would suggest that you check up on what keyboards/MIDI devices are compatible on your linux distributions forum before you buy any thing. Here's a link that I found on a Roland G70.

I did a little bit of digging and it is possible to use a USB midi keyboard but it could be complicated (or have complications). Will I encounter any problems using this keyboard hardware wise, and what software will I need to make it work on Linux? The online store says that the keyboard is compatible with Windows and Mac, both nothing about Linux. I'm considering buying a USB MIDI controllers keyboard for the holidays, and I am new to both Linux and the whole digital recording process.
