That's funny, I know washtubbass, he was actually in The Farleys for a brief period, he played a washtub with a rope for a string. We called him Motivational Speaker Farley (everyone had a Farley name). He was on the Today Show demonstrating the Cardboard Bass and it was once a most viewed video on YouTube.

edit: here's his next gig from his Myspace:

Saturday April 12 8pm to 11pm
FREE / All Ages at Plymouth Coffee Bean Co.

884 Penniman in Plymouth Michigan
more info at my myspace page
and i'll have the first completed 3-string box bass
to let everyone play

LOL...j/k, my man!

I've played washtub, too...it's quite fun.

These look like fun, too...I'm gonna make one & take it to practice one day just to blow everyone's mind...heh heh heh


Tnx, Craig! Where do you GET all this stuff? You must spend 20 hrs a day reading to find these cool lil snippets!

Ha ha. Nope. I spend 20 hours a day writing friggin' essays on BandMix though. It's making me question myself.
