Re: what do you do for a living beside chapman stick
I am (6) years retired from the Omaha Public Power District. Since than I have played the hammer dulcimer, wood carving, collected ho trains and now since January 2017 been with Steve Adelson brain racking myself to coordinate two hands on a railboard stick. Believe me i am enjoying lessons. it is just getting my hands to work together. I know it just takes practice, practice and more practice. I will get it.

Re: what do you do for a living beside chapman stick
Ok..here goes... I work full time as a craftsman/scenic artist. I tell people that we make "fake stuff look real". I do this at a theme park in Orlando...been at it for over 20 yrs now, I am also a semi-professional musician with my band Jupiter Groove and as a solo artist playing Native American Flute and Stick in solo settings. I also make Native American Flutes and sell them.

Re: what do you do for a living beside chapman stick
I bought an odd instrument last week called a Xaphoon made in Maui. It looks very similar to a flute but sounds like a saxophone. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hFmFa7c0V4sI've been playing saxophone for several years, so this was a great way of making it portable.

Re: what do you do for a living beside chapman stick
If you are referring to the Xaphoon, https://www.long-mcquade.com/167/Band---Orchestral/Novelty-Instruments/Maui-Xaphoon/Pocket-Saxophone.htmI found another video of it. I like the first tune that this guy plays. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gp84BqoWZEcBoaz wrote: Interesting. Where do you buy it?
