just transpose all of your music into c. it can't be that hard. right?

That's how The Wiggles do it!

Dude, don't forget that C major is also A minor. You could totally use this thing to play Breathe! And you could probably get away with the intro riff to Death of the Hero.

oh.

Now I'm sad because everybody has this on backorder. :(

where exactly are these places that have this miraculous thing on back-order?
I wouldn't mind being put on backorder for one of those!

I like these too: but there is no chance in hell I can play that without sounding like a cat that was trodden on it's tail O_o

you quit injecting logic into this discussion!!!
17th-Jul-2008 07:44 pm (UTC) - What's Wrong With C Major?
Yeah, what Nathan said. Plus, as I recall The Wrong Side and The Only One are both in C. Plus think of the new tunes you could write around that thing. I say try to get it! It looks so fucking COOL!

Damn...I was going to suggest the relative minor thing and Nathan beat me to it...which is not a huge suprise, really.

You always can fix your harp's key by replacing it's reedplates. =)

ooOOo, there's an idea!

Best regards from russian harpers. ;)

Hey Robert!

As you are drawn to extravagent instruments, do you know the "Feng" or mouth organ? If not, I need to share that one with you! It has a quite exotic and bizarre look, and partly works on steam :D

I am going to modify one for using it in my band, too *joyfull anticipation*

Are you perhaps talking about the Sheng? That is one hell of a mouth piece.

Love your avatar, totally gave me flashbacks to Gunhead.
18th-Jul-2008 12:44 pm (UTC) - Re: Feng
You are absolutely right, I meant the Sheng. I think Feng (like in Feng Shui)is the Word for Wind, that's why I get mixed up easily.

Thank you :)

You need this. Oh yes you do.

That's a rather splendid thing to blow into!

Hey and thanks for the mention in the CD sleave of the album.
