How would you like to see one of THESE sweet babies at your next session?

Hmm...well it actually sounds pretty decent. I expected more of a droning sound.

That one looks like something straight out of "The Grinch Who Stole Christmas."

The didgibodhran I have is such a nice one! Mine was my wedding present from Colin

Perfect D didge, I did not use the drum with a stick only with hands though, am a bit worried the ceramics might not survive me banging with hard woods. Heavy it is, though and a weakling like me, after one tune I always needed a rest. Barry Hall who makes these didgibodhrans is a very nice chap. He also makes ceramic flutes and other interesting looking didges, instruments and things. Go and check him out, please....

Can't you just picture it? Get two folks, one playing both the instruments pictured, put them on a bicycle built for two!!!

That second one looks like the offspring of a mating between a dentist's drill and a bar beer tap. Just thinking of the possibilities such a cross would entail frightens me.

I bet it makes good espresso, though.
