A few instrument ideas that may (most like) or may not have been discussed before:

Bull Roarer
String with a shaped piece of wood or stone attached to it that you whip around your head. As the air passes over the piece of wood it vibrates, producing sounds. Would be a percussion instrument, very difficult to play (at least it was when I tried it!)

Lion's Roar
Essentially a drum with a string attached to the open end, which is bowed to make some eerie roar-like sounds. Pretty simple instrument to play, could use it to enhance illusions like AEWO?

Berimbau
It's a long stick with a wire attached to a gourd resonator. Technically a percussion instrument, but for here I think stringed makes more sense.

Accordian
I guess a wind instrument, similar to how the bagpipes are set up. Might be too modern for DR though?

Sweet!

I can't wait to see a bull roarer, they are lots of fun to play with!

GENT

An accordian is as difficult to place as a piano.. A user doesn't use their breath, so it shouldn't be a wind, but it's also melodic and not strictly percussive, so it shouldn't be a percussion. And of course, it doesn't have strings, though I'd stick it in strings before anything else...

If a keyboard skill ever opened up, I'd say the gansa-gambang should jump over to that, along with any new and similar instruments like a marimba or xylophone...

Bardic wit at its finest folks. Someone get a bottle so we can capture this and sell it.

<<Id just use the bottle they were obviously passing around.>>

Thats my bottle and I want it back now, refilled though

If you find yourself confronted by a group of armed guards, be warned that they will attack you in mass. No matter what you have been told by other sources, rest assured that they will not line up to attack you one by one. ~Handbook of Practical Heroics

at the next con Ill bring both the mead (I make) and the other (others make).


Got Body Parts?

Heh Mason stopped making the half gallon jars because most of them were being sold in the next county over from me (they finally figured out why).

<<Crap, now I DO have to drive the horrible 25-30 minutes it would take me to get over there.>>

Least you don't have to find plane tickets, a hotel room, and someone to pay my bartab

KAJAGOOGOO,

Send me some of your recipes for it, and or where to buy or mail order it. Ohio used to be illegal to mail alcohol, Im not sure it still is. I may actually have a clean basement to ferment it now.

and cooler of beer sold me


The Bardic blunder

No excuses Eowo! I'll just bring a bigger cooler. Actually, you probaly did both canoeing and rafting. Parts of the New are very calm, and parts have class IV rapids. Its one of the only non-coastal areas I'd like to live in myself.

Its Oct 21, be there!
