finally got to hear this. there is a distinct didgeridoo sound to it, especially when you start. I wonder what would happened if you bowed the string. - and - how did you pull the wire out of a tire - I want to do that.

Wow! That's freaking awesome! I love instruments like this and the fact that you made your own is killer! Lovely 3 track recording. Nice groove. I would love to hear you expand on this and combine it with some synths or something, but hell either way really really cool!

Excellent norm you really can get a beat out of anything ......we used to play bows and arrows with our Berinbau we just had a bit of string instead of wire and the wood was. Bit of elder kept us occupied for hours in the spiny wood and the only sound we made from it was the loud Fadunk when we let the reed arrows fly at one ofd the cowboys.....

I slide in time
And feel the gaps

Reg was at the weekly AA meeting at the old school and the group asked Reg if there was anything he would like to share....so Reg decided to share this ........
A spectacular vox Reg, although I confess I can no longer tell when you are copping an accent - I suspect you have many convincing voices.
Poor big-hearted monkey. You are going to miss him. But at least he's off of your back, if I'm hearing this parable correctly.
I've been all around
I've been up and down
I said I've traveled in all directions

The world is new
If you've seen what I've seen
And you've been where I've been
I guess you know what I mean

A true story about some of my odd dreams
If the world's strongest man
Could hold the world in the palm of his hand
Would he crush us all into dust?
As a way to punish us
These are the kind of things
That seem to occupy me
If a giant…

It's a curious thing. I guess that I like this song... I've started to listen to it several times and I have apparently "faved" it, but I can't remember listening to it for the life of me...

standing in the cornfield you watch the corn grow and
the searing hot days pass on to night to day to night to day,

your roots dig soil,
your stalk stretches…

Yeah, great bass. Love the guitar work. Love the vocals too! Heck, I love the whole thing!
Cool vocal effects.
Solid. Love the bass.
