Wow, those sheep or goats are damn good... if every fifth sheep had another bell one octave down from the rest I think they could make some beautiful musical patterns :)

Yeah, that's why I don't play music any longer. Anything I would possibly create seems futile and already done better by goats and/or sheep.

I think that's what made your music special though. You embraced the 'futile' nature of life, the cosmic joke.

Does anyone have any experience playing a barimbau?

We were watching elmo’s holiday dvd and a group had one during the kwanza dance. This sounds litAF. It looks pretty easy. I’m curious how loud it is acoustically. If i played it at midnight would it wake the kids?

To confirm, when you say kids, do you mean baby goats?

I obviously don't know your setup but I would think they are fairly loud but not crazy loud. I am sure you can play it fairly softly by not beating it too hard.

Yeah I was going to cool it posting videos from that one (same with some punk channels) cause people get the same things I do. I just thought this one was cool.
Apparently when people trip out on DMT they see Jaguars (for those who watch the JRE Podcast, you know the story). I thought this was too much of a coincidence to not post in this odd thread.

Yeah, well I prefer melanistic servals (that's for another thread entirely):

You really missed the boat not posting a photo of a melanistic jaguar and a dog eating baby goats though. :idk: :animal:

This thread reminds me I need to re-visit this gem.
