What stool do you use with your farmer drums?
As mine seems a bit short, got any recomendations?
Thanks Bug
I seen you and Be going on about those harp mic clamps, one of my Achilles heels, I'm intrigued by the first one she listed that clamps up just under the mic screen.
Hope you didn't mind, thought it should be shared, you were very entertaining. I enjoyed the content of your songs, I think most people were distracted by your impish smile and drum machine to register the content, ha, ha.
Do you know of any plans to organise a regional event, I think the 'South should Rise' and get something organised, us Hastings lads are always happy to get things organised. Whaddya think?
Thought you might enjoy this, I did, regards, Sadletramp http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FUNH1nT3Ctg
