Thread Name: New Didgeridoo Club in Hull
Subject: RE: New Didgeridoo Club in Hull
Someone once sang a song that went:

Why don't you try to didgeridoo
As you'd like to be didgeridone by

Jenny (also sweltering - the BBQ on Sunday's looking good!)

I have a didge, but I don't know how to play it. Women aren't s'posed to anyway, according to the folklore.

We can if it's a homemade one, made out of PVC pipe. They still sound quite real, actually. We have a guy here, Mick Griffin, who makes tunable didges out of pieces of PVC pipe of slightly different thicknesses. One fits inside the other and slides like a trombone. He's also one of the best didge players I've heard.
