interesting. So it's something along the lines of a 4 string accoustic. I wonder how it's keyed/tuned...

not all of that link worked. Do a google search for piccolo bass and then click on images. The first image has a sound bite.

[Roger -Dot- Lee(Admin)]

OK. Gotcha. It's essentially a tenor guitar/alto bass guitar sorta thing. In the octave between the two instruments.

Thanks for the info!

Roger -Dot- Lee, Larnin' agin....

I should have had you do it in April vax. I lack the technical prowess but have the guts.

It looks like you have the reverse problem.

Guts! That's not the problem. It's been finding quiet time here to do it. That's been cut down now too since the brats have 1/2 days until their last day of school. After Wednesday, peace and quiet disappear until September.

It's here! It's here. It's finally here. Aural Moon Lister Appreciation Day has finally arrived.

T- actually, that was an erroneous post aimed at
the "blip" thread.

i wasn't familiar w/ iona's music until recently,
made aware by a "favorite prog bands since 1990"
thread on....one of the competition's yahoo group.

teermin8ter-
something funny-
since i hadn't heard of iona, i did a google.

it turned up an american folk band of the
same name, which owns www.iona.com

i thought, "you have to be tripping! this
isn't prog!!"


i finally found the iona u.k.com site.
great stuff!

I own 2 Iona cds, 'Open Sky' and 'Journey to the Morn'. Both are excellent and I am going to get the box set off of their website, which has their first 3 cds and a special live cd. Since I didn't see you in the chatroom that day but knew you were listening, just to let you know all of the songs on my playlist were songs I never knew b4 AM, except the last song. The FZ 'Nanook Medley' I chose to finish with is because I had requested the the yellow snow medley be ripped as one song. So I think I had some influence over that. Anyway the moon has influenced me in so many ways in my life and none of them bad.
