Musical Wood
Vasco brought in a mad wooden instrument to the studio the other day, that he’d been building on the weekend. Made me think of this : ) Although i’m not sure these instruments would be so tuneful. Must have taken absolutely ages to build.
Artist Mike Rea says, “There wasn’t anything interesting and wooden in my life.” So, reason enough, he set about making wooden space suits, giant wooden tanks, drum kits, machine guns ( made of separate components complete with fitted case to carry them in ). You know … the usual stuff…
Imagine turning up to a party in this!

wow, that band set up is amazing - the better you play the more splinters you expect!
