Both of you guys can stop now. You're scaring the crap out of me. However, maybe the three of us could start a band together. We can call it "Squeezy blues and the digeree doos."
I think I'd prefer it if y'all just digeri-don't... :)

Funny you should say that - just got back from a fest which has an endemic didgeridooist who shows up every year and manages to shoehorn himself into far more stage time than he really warrants. The scribble strip says all...
Back to the original subject, with an (ex) dad who played piano, univox and pianoaccordion in dance bands, a wife who plays cello, son #1 (bass, cello), son #2 (keys) and not a skerrick of musical talent myself, what else is left but to push faders ?.

I love how he ended up all the way at the "end" of the mixer between the DJ and VOX 5. :-D

Not all didgeridoo sucks. Working in this part of the world I see one every week, but these guys are a refreshing change. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8yAMWQVZTpc (Not my gig on the video)

For anyone interested in didgeridoo, I produced an album last year with a didgeridoo.  http://www.arkoserecords.com/ArtistsMusic/Didgericruise/tabid/88/Default.aspx

I lost a few discussions with the artists where I wanted less didge on particular songs.

Every sound guy I know is also a gigging musician - including myself.

Curious is there sound guys out there that do not play in a band or played an instrument?

I am currently the bass drummer for the local bagpipe band. Whether that means I'm a muscian or not is an open question. I have also played violin, guitar, and drums in decades past. Mark C.
