Thanks to a reddit link to Stickman's performance for Indi.com, I stumbled across the Chapman Stick a few months ago. Watching Bob Culbertson, Greg Howard, David Tipton and others on YouTube was fascinating. I love the concept of an ergonomic instrument, that looks relatively easy to sound notes on... |

Oh, and the Garage Band to Logic Pro route is a great way to start off if you're already swimming with a MAC. But it's a cost hurdle to get into versus a cheaper PC. Adds: you can get the Mac for around $2000 but that's about it. Garage Band is free though, but you'd still need an interface. [Stops ... |

Dude; if you snag a Macbook, you snag Garageband which is an excellent starter DAW. Then, when you decide to upgrade a bit, Logic ProX talks really nicely to all of those projects in GB... As far as bang for the buck goes, Logic ProX is VERY good. Comes with a lot more than Cubase or Protools does,... |

That was beautiful, Glenn. I'm only familiar with Pat Metheny by name but I can hear what I've been missing. I liked your arrangement of that, admitting that I've not heard the original to compare it to. I'll have to check him out. Thanks!

That was great! I don't know much David Bowie, and I've only heard of but not heard Ziggy Stardust--your version was awesome! I enjoyed both your Stick playing and your singing. Excellent! |

Nice arrangement of an awesome 4-chord guitar classic! Although, I was expecting oven mitts, I must admit, and am a bit disappointed that you weren't using any. Good job! |

Good luck, Greg! or "Gambatte kudasai!" which you'll probably hear a lot. Also "Umai!" "Jouzu!" "Stekki na!" and "Sugoi," which mean amazing, wonderful, talented, and awesome! The Japanese, being respectful and supportive, are the one of the best aud... |
