Hopefully, recording with the other mic will hold (webcam settings can be funny). If so, I will redo all my performance vids, and from here on out, I will use the other mic. The mic that came with the webcam is such that no matter how I adjust it, it just doesn't work well. I guess it's meant only for conversation, really.
I am using the webcam more and more for all kinds of things, so I will someday get a good one. Hope you enjoy my newest vid! I will be posting one or two more today/tommorow

- I love widgets! LOL I got a widget for a percussion/drumming station, just put it up here. I want to learn a bit about source code, so that I can put some fine touches, like centering and such :)

- I decided to also put the recitation of "The drum" by John Scott on the front page, as well, for ease of access. Enjoy! It is an intense poem, I think :)

- Yes, that is a nice one. There is another song I think you'd like, neat drum rhythm with recorder. Sounds like its either a bodhran being hit with a mallet, or an egyptian daf. I will record me playing along and send it to you :) I record vids instead, cause my other recorder only records songs for a minute, which of course, is nothing LOL

I love that medieval drum dance Celtic...geez, it puts me at a renaissance faire with my woman on one arm and a stout grog in my other hand! I will sleep well tonight. Thank you for this room, R!

- Thanks sage! It's a joy for me to work on all my little rooms and my main sites, not a labor :) Hopefully I will be able to add to the playlist to fill it out to 100, but it'll be difficult to do so if I'm limited to just playlist website songs

- oo oo oooooo...They had the song I wanted...the song simply entitled "Tabla" by Phillip Glass is a phenemonal tabla solo on a CD entitled "Ravi Shankar presents Indian Drum Masters." You hear one guy sort of sining. This is an art, can't remember the name of it, of calling out the beats, and he calls out the blisteringly fast beats in real time. Amazing!

Well...I saw this song being done with bongos, and I HAD to do this myself with my turkish doumbek! Many thanks to Romantic Poetess for putting this vid up in the first place, or I'd have missed it...

No...it is not me in this video..yet ;)
Well...now this is divine! I love this song by sting. and the bongos here go so well with it. I think if he played them just a tad softer, it'd be perfect, or if he turned up the volume to match ...
