Exactly what bait does one use to hook one of those, anyway?

Norm has been teaching a master's class in percussion and gave me (a lot!!) of guidance to try to add bass properly to this. I added 5 string bass, Fender Mustang and GR-20 sax to his excellent Tumbao track. We hope you enjoy it.

I had to go for a Ct scan in the long tubed ones where the whole body goes in and i thought i was a touch claustrophobic, i now know i'm very claustrophobic i think my heart was pumping as fast as this beat, when i got out i felt like i had been for a run.....an excellent track almost mirrors the way my body reacted

Hey man I always open to ideas! I tried it and I am really glad I did! I was in a space today thinking "yeah but..." And I try not to get into that mode. Even though I might not always agree with an idea...It does not make them wrong. I spent to much of my life as an...well...an a**hole..it's something I feel I can always improve on, and always try to better myself as a human being and this strange rock we call earth. Did I make myself sound intelligent? Ha ha :) glad you liked it man.

I bought a $50 Woods DW-15 acoustic dreadnought 12 note per octave guitar at Guitar Center, fret wire, and a fret saw. After a couple days of work I made a usable 18 note per octave guitar. Most of the details and lots of pictures are on my facebook…

East-West Choir went on sale and I received and installed my copy yesterday. So this is a quick improvisation for ImprovFriday. Boys choir, double bass, tuba, celesta, bass drum, timpani and electronics.
