Didj Bass available for jams and gigs

I play the Didj-Bass excruciatingly well in a myriad of styles. I'd like to play out more often if possible, and I really want to be involved more with the local music scene.

The didjeridoo and bass instruments are usually individually played, but each (in my mind) seem to miss a little something in both their sound and appearance. I play a professional quality instrument and I gig quite a bit with it. When played as a melodic instrument the Didj-Bass can rock as hard as the Scorpions first album (which I perform solo as a tribute, and usually on ice), and can generate the sweeter tones of Celine Dion warbling the quiet sections from her theme song "Let's Talk About Love " - I'm told I look exactly like her when performing this song. When played as a backing instrument the Didj-Bass can provide a driving sound that your ensemble has never heard. Not to mention it will set you apart by both making your band visually distinctive as well as opening up a definite market of Didj-Bass enthusiasts. Also: I don't drink very much so the band bar tab would not be adversely affected.

I've seen this thing before on the internet, so when I stumbled upon it on craigslist I was pretty sure it wasn't the actual guy. But regardless if it is him or not, I love the first sentence, and am going to start telling people I play "excruciatingly well".
