you got me wanting to try a 1 man band setup ,busker style so got out my guitar put my guitar in DADGAD tuning and tried a glass tube my dad gave today to learn some slide,i built a stompbox from a cedar,cigarbox awhile back it has 2 egg like rattles and 2 small bells and foam for a spring i can tap it and it sounds cool,im without a harp rack so i bent a clothes hanger into a micky rigged rack and tried it out.I was out of time alot and just made some slides and the harp was mostly low notes but,i thought hey if i had a good rack and hours and hours and some more hours of practice i could do a 1 man band the more i messed with it the more i liked the bluesy sounds they were raw and not really songs but just a feel.It was fun actually and i think i might have to explore this some more but it will be awhile before i post anything with every thing at once thanks for the inspiration.

cool! The world needs more 1 man bands! Keep me posted on your results. I listened to your link but didn't hear any samples.

yea im just learning how to put this on pages just this week,It plays from this page from my computer,i dont know if its just mine or what,Face book has so many ways to upload music its very confusing i have 3 or 4 Mp3 stores im not sure how to work the links,and keep it all organized i guees its like anything got to put some time in and firgure it out.i like the saying a good plan today is better than a great plan tomorow,but its hard i see why your looking for a agent this is hard work and i havent left my room :)
Yes, it is easy to get these myspace, facebook, and the like things going, but then they can take up way too much time. I have both, but don't get involved with either. Once I set them up, I lost interest.
I've been looking for a booking agent/promoter for 35 years. I figure sooner or later someone who is as crazy as me in believing the world really would like to hear a new way of doing music, might find the concept of spontobeat worth a shot.
