New shakuhachi in Oklahoma
Was listening to some meditation music..."That's a very cool sound. Wonder what's making it?" "Oh, it's a shakuhachi!! Gotta add one of those to my whistle collection!" "Uh - oh, those buggers are expensive..... wait, here's one made out of genuine PVC for only twelve bucks; that's in my price range."
So, now I have a new whistle to play with. I can make it toot six times out of ten tries, fumble through a two octave scale, but so far, "Mary Had a Little Lamb" has me beat. I look forward to enjoying this BBQ.

Re: New shakuhachi in Oklahoma
Very funny, I got to Prague shaku. festival totally by accident, but me going meant my wife had to cancel a shamanic soul retrieval. I phoned the shaman, she had had a shakuhachi 'lying around' somewhere for 10 years or so; I bought it a few weeks later and was happy to pass MY plastic flute on to a friend -who practices HOURS everyday! (me about 20 minutes) I have since found, in my collections of music instruments for musical summer camps, 2 more shakuhachi! All are kind of beginner level, and I am enjoying my 'begin.'
ps. Hi Kiku if you read this!
