Cool! I used to own one of those (a betta, not a cello).
Great job on the song.
I once heard the William Tell Overture played on a hammer dulcimer (live performance).
That must have been amazing. Hammer dulcimers are pretty amazing instruments. I can’t imagine how wonderful it must be live.
I love bettas I just can’t own them since I read this shitty article about how they get to the pet store. I’m to broke to fly to where they really live and find one in the wild, plus that is bad too because it is taking the poor thing out of it’s natural habitat. I fucking hate reading about stuff like that. No bettas, no Sea World (Black Fish, do NOT watch it unless you never want to go to Sea World again). sigh. Feeder goldfish it is. Until I read some awful article about them and then I will be stuck with wolf garden snails and their prey, the unsuspecting plain escargot garden snail.
Funny fact. Stick one of each in a tank and watch the slowest preditor vs prey chase in this history of prey chases.
OMG! I swear I have played the William Tell Overture on a hammered dulcimer before.
Honest.
A few years back, there was a hammered dulcimer festival in some city here in Michigan (It was at some fairgrounds…. but it’s been so long, I can’t even remember where).
One of the features was soloists performing on stage.
I signed up to take part in the performance.
I did the William Tell Overture, and I think I also played Irish Washerwoman.
Maybe others also, but can’t remember.
Wow… I was a teenager then.
If you had said Ohio I might have thought it was you!
Irish Washerwoman is a great song.
My group might have gone to Ohio a few times too….
If it was a loooong time ago, and if the person you saw was a depressed awkward teenager with long dark curly hair, then it might have been me!
Coshocton Dulcimer Days? Sometime around the mid-90s?
Hmmmmm….
No, sadly that name doesn’t ring a bell…
And mine would’ve been in the mid-to-late 1980’s.
There do seem to be a lot of dulcimer players in this part of the midwest.
Shoot, I was getting excited about this!
We must be close to the same age.
I have a cello in my living room but I never learned how to play it.
I also have a keyboard, a dulcimer, a french horn, and a harp (all of which I do know how to play, but it’s been awhile for some of them).
Symphony rehearsals start up again next week, so at least I’ll get back into practicing the horn.
P.S. Yay for the betta painting! I love how flamboyant they are.
I should list all the instruments in this house I can play. LOL.
Can’t play. I can play one. Kinda.
Beautiful! MAYBE YOUR BEST? I’ve done the flight of the bumble bee on several occasions. i know i got in a lot of trouble doing it 🙂
I couldn’t hope to play it rocketman. Wow thank you for the compliment.
It it definitely beautiful and I think I like just about everything you’ve done, but I think my favorite thing so far was the weird creature with the red eyes.
I LOVED that even though it was disturbing enough to make my skin crawl.
I may have even saved it.
Good because I deleted that disturbing shit. LOL.
I can draw some really disturbing shit. I have drawn some really disturbing shit. It just isn’t healthy for me to draw really disturbing shit. I was tempted the other night and thought nah I won’t. I’ll draw lantana instead.
Here have some cello:

This chick is almost having sex with her cello.
Weird creature with red eyes? Dang, how did I miss that?
@mysterious: PHantom posted a crazy guy and I was in such a crazy headspace I couldn’t help rifting off of it and doing some disturbing shit and posting it. That was just prior to me wiping my hard drive and deleting all my emails and email account. If anyone has a copy do not post it. But feel free to send it to anyone who wants to see it. I don’t want to see it.
Looks like a Siamese fighter my fav tropical fish ^_&^ this is lovely!! :0)
That’s what it is. I love them.
