traditinal bands are boring now...
vocal, bass, guitar or 2, and drums....thats it...

but not me baby!

My band would have a vocal, guitarist,bass,drums,,,and a very secret instrument which will make all the difference in the world....

and nope it cannt be a Dg like linkin park, or slipknot, or limp bisket
its something better.....

oops run out off time...Ill leave it to you.give it a guess people.... :rolleyes:

Mandolins have been done quite frequently. In fact, I'm planning on using a mandolin too, just as soon as I learn how to play mine. Perhaps it's a kazoo. Or maybe bagpipes. Xylaphone? Bongos? Harmonica? Maybe a brass instrument like the trumpet? Bugle, how about a bugle? Oh ****, I know!! Wind chimes!!! It's got to be the wind chimes!!

That would be sweet! I actually plan on doing a song or two with a didgeridoo in my band. Too bad I made mine out of a PVC pipe, so it may not sound the greatest. I'll bet the "secret instrument" is the steel drums!

In the end, the only thing that matters is what you want to express and how you go about expressing, whether you have a three piece and person band or a 200 person ochestra. If in the process of expressing yourself you end up playing fancy, exotic, uncommon instruments, it's all good. But don't go out and get exotic, fancy just for the sake of it. Ok, you could do that, and see how it goes. Just for the heck of it.
Anyway, you get my point.

To hell with the instruments all together... STOMP! i wonder what's happened to stomp actually... *off to research that*
look at some of the people here though:
www.oddmusic.com

I dont know, but ive got a feeling that this instrument that you'll reveal will reveal a pointless attention seeking post... that's gotten a few responses though...

oh yeah, on the subject of dijiridoos http://www.oddmusic.com/dp3/index.html
