5 string bass guitar solo.
Here is me and my 5 string bass, which I really, really like playing despite the pain in my pinky to make those stretches I hear in my mind. The name seems stupid - but way better than STE-018cn.

Home made cannon in Just Intonation, cymbals struck by hand and bowed. (I don't own so many cymbals - I made a field recording while walking through the cymbal room at Sam Ash. A most exciting experience actually!) I did buy two cheap cymbals…

This is the song that's responsible for the creation of this band in the first place. It was originally intended to be used with another band of mine, but kept growing and changing, until it no longer suited that band.

Solo acoustic finger picking thing I've been working on for a while. Sometime around 1968 I started studying with Mr. George Bennett who taught me the rudiments of finger picking. Later when we played some gigs together he also taught me the rudiments…

A crayon may not be such a big deal - but intentionally harming your neighbor is. If no one stops first - it will never stop.
