Didgeridoo

Didgeridoo Tube. Duration : 0.85 Mins.


2 million hits and going! Thank you everyone for your interest, continued feedback, and mostly, your friendship. We're proud to have built an international community which was our aim to begin with... the funny thing is that its starting to feel like a family. So thanx brothas and sistas, aunties and uncles, and the world - it reminds me that we are all one. This is my poison-cousin, the one and only Larry Gurruwiwi aka Prince of Didgeridoo, an extraordinary talent and son of famed didgeridoo craftsman my grandfather Djalu Gurruwiwi. In north-east Arnhem Land where cuz and granddad come from, the didgeridoo is known as the 'yirdaki'. You might also sometimes see it spelt 'yidaki'. Currently, in the year 2011, 'mandapul' has also come into use due to a senior elder passing away with a name that sounds like 'yirdaki'. To see Larry as he is in late 2011, check out this clip in 3D HD :) You'll need your 3D red-blue glasses though, they're cheap to buy like less than on eBay and elsewhere on the internet, or if you can't wait for your 3D glasses to arrive through the post, make your own from an old disused pair of sunglasses. Punch out the current lenses. Replace them with one red and one blue cellophane "lens" and there you go, your own unique one-off custom 3D glasses. You can get cellophane in art and craft stores, or use Google, your best online friend on do-it-yourself instructions on anything, plus the handiest locator of the closest source for goodies. Think global ...
