Hey everyone. I have been a missing person for a while, but I'm trying to not be so scarce. I just completed construction of one of my Christmas gifts (from my lovely wife). It's something I've wanted to try for a couple years now. Looking forward to incorporating it into some new songs. ;D I'll post an example soon... as soon as I figure out how to play it. LOL!

Funny you should post a picture of triangle as a secret weapon. I always joke that no instrument is easy to play...including a triangle if you can't keep time :>)
Yes, I think it's one of those....
I have a Didgeridoo but I have yet to be able to squeeze a good sound from it. Maybe I'm not hitting it hard enough.
theremin?

Hey Frank,
I didn't know you were on here...how's it going?
These are always a good weapon...

Bubble Organ?

or how about:
Skin flute? (sorry I couldn't help myself, childish humour I know)
What the heck is a bubble organ anyway?

First of all... Hey, Mach! Good to see you.
Wow! All great guesses. LOL!
Actually, one of you got it right... but I won't keep you in suspense.

Yes! Congratulations!
I'm sending you an autographed copy of my CD... ummm... when I finish it. ;D
Cool! Will you be posting a cover of The Beach Boys' "Good Vibrations" for us? Seems like a perfect song to start with as the Theramin part sounds fairly simple. The vocals might be tricky though.
Or how about the Star Trek theme? ...

Best theremin player I've ever seen (probably the only one).
:D great video:

Though often heard used for sound effects in sci-fi's, it can be a serious instrument...

Like someone singing....
