it would seem to be bit of a hopeless cause.

True, but we all Love a Hopeless Cause....

See, that's what makes this place cool - we've got to bagpipes and flugelhorn solos  :o

I was wondering if you could get instruments from every continent involved - then we could travel the world in just a few hours  :) - but for Australia all I can come up with is a Didgeridoo and I have no idea if one of those (or a sample) has ever been used and as for Antarctica well unless there's a whalebone flute or a penguin skin drum it would seem to be bit of a hopeless cause. Still, people here never cease to amaze me with what they know so maybe someone will pop up with a mad bit of information.

What about Bill Bailey on Theremin - he could help Dean out with the weird wiggly noises  :)

... and Ms Fitzgerald?   :-*

Ah ha! One deduces the reason your laptop got so bashed  ;D

Oy!  My devotion to Ms Fitzgerald is beautiful and pure... I'm sure she didn't actually mean that restraining order...   :(

Back to the original point... a six-piece string section wouldn't go amiss...

Excellent ! I've not been to an NMA gig where Ed has played as yet. Looking forward to Vagabonds already !  They must do it surely. Marshall could have a rest during the intro for a change, or maybe they could do a call and response duel type of thing  :D

Funnily enough, I had a day off and went to Chester and once again, Mr AJ was busking... damn, he always draws a crowd of new and old admirers... what a talent.
