I just added a quick recording I did demoing the David Gilmour seagull trick. I did a couple of "gulls" against a wind howl I did on my keyboard.

Hummmm, had to listen as I had no clue what you were talking about.
The "howling wind" sounded like a air raid siren.
So's I dont remain ignorant too long. Whats the whole seagull thing all about anyways?

Now THAT was spooky.

Perfect for the next big horror movie.

If I heard that outside in the night, I'd be down the road in a hurry while on the look out for deranged manics wielding god know what.

I agree Capt. I was thinking vampires and bats for some reason. Interesting use of effects. I liked your mix.

Its another day in Paradise !!!

Colaborator, has anyone told you that the pic on your avatar makes you look like you are "levitating over a beaver"?

It's actually very cool.

(yes, I realize it's your dog in the foreground, it's still pretty cool.)

Actually that is a beaver I killed that was destroying my place. She was the small one I killed @ 54 lbs. The male was about 85 lbs . I hav'nt learned to levitate yet, but Im still trying.

And its another day in Paradise !!!!

I've killed a few beavers in my time heh heh.

Did someone mention vampires?

I dunno if it's true or not, but I've been told that, in theee parts, a beaver ain't scared of much.

One guy told me he was sitting by the creek & a beaver walked right up to him. he said he reached over & scratched its ears before it wandered off.

Just don't try to grab one, cuz they've got a nasty tail slapper & fugly sharpish teeth.

Anyone else ever heard that sorta thing, or is it another one of those country tall tales?

I hope you never have to deal with the mess they caused here . I had to cut down 18 trees and thats the half I could'nt save. They were'nt supposed to be hard to kill .but it took me 8 months to get rid of them. I shot at 1 the first time and he started after me after 8 OOO buckshot later I dragged his ass down to the river and disposed of him. the other acted a lot like an arcade duck. I would shoot at her in the water and she would dive about 5 minutes , come up and tease another shot out of me.We done this for months cause I could'nt catch her out of the water. The last straw was when she cut down the apple tree in the background of that picture . My brother and I sat out most of the night till I caught her coming across the dam to my pond. She did'nt make it that night . My son took this pic right before I buried this one. I wish I had taken her to a taxidermist . I hear I could have gotten 1500 bucks for her stuffed. thzat might be half of what it cost me taking care of the damages. I doubt anyone would stick a hand out towards the teeth on one though. they were real mean bastards and I worried about my dogs constantly. I've hunted since I was 4 years old , this were'nt my idea of fun at all !

But another day in Paradise !!!

Dude! That is creepy...really cool, though. Yeah, what the heck is the seagull thingy, anyway?

My family owns a bunch of farm land and Ive got a demolition license to blow up dams. Its kinda fun sometimes, except the time we blew this stump in the air and it landed on the hood of my friends truck!

Those old dynamite caps are just as powerful as the old M-80s we used to get. They are fun to scare the hell out of people.

Beavers can cause a lot of damage for sure. Glad you took cre of that one!

I tried it too but the damned things kept flying away. Sign 'o' the times I guess?

It's just a guitar plugged into a wah wah pedal the wrong way around. You keep the wah in the up position, then you can do therimin like sounds by using the tone control on your guitar

THAT's different...I'll have to try it.
