Didgeridoo is another staff to you folks. So this is the Australian aboriginal Didgeridoo. It’s just a hollow tube of bamboo.

So you’re just going to throw in some different techniques like you can vary your voice. And I’ll just do a little bit of staccato and I throw that in with some long drowning notes as well.
