Strange musical instruments

[SG]

Malc-that reminds me,a guy on the radio said he saw Fred Frith play with a paint brush then take weather stripping and smash it around on the strings
There was a local band here that the bass player played with a steak knife
Doo Rag from Arizona played old country blues songs on homemade mutant guitars and banged on sheet metal for percussion.

Thats Freddy.

He’d do other weird things too, like weaving a bunch of clarinet reeds under the strings and pulling them out.

And doesn’t mercury rev invent some instruments?

Mercury Rev has the singing saw another local band had a guy playing the saw,that was cool.

I saw a guy play a saw in a very small town in Minnesota…Starbuck :aliensmile: Don’t remember the name of the band though, w/e concert with about 20 different groups…Grant Hart was the main attraction The saw was cool for awhile, surprised by the sounds that came from it
