Thanks Melo - looks like a fantastic trip out to Poor Knights and a great dive.

One day you will have to explain the ''Drowning of the Children''.

You want to hear something mental?

See, I bought myself this Akai EWI USB thingy which is a midi synth controller that uses breath, like a wind instrument. I always found keyboards so un-expressive compared to my guitar that I was never satisfied. I have seen Mike Brecker (God rest his soul) a few times live and I always thought the EWI was a marvellously expressive instrument so when the USB one came out, I snapped one up.

Trouble is, I have never touched a wind instrument in my life...

But anyway, I had this wierd tune that was slowly evolving into some nonsense Tyrolean kinda waltzy kinda kitschy kinda thing and I EWI'd it, big time.

The trumpet doesn't really work, but then again I can't play trumpet =) BUT, I think the EWI is simply amazing for putting together string sections.

So for some not too serious Tyrolean lols, try Tyrolol

If I had thought of it earlier I would have called it Tyrolullaby!
