"When you want genuine music -- music that will come right home to you like a bad quarter, suffuse your system like strychnine whisky, go right through you like Brandreth's pills, ramify your whole constitution like the measles, and break out on your hide like the pin-feather pimples on a picked goose, -- when you want all this, just smash your piano, and invoke the glory-beaming banjo!" ~ Mark Twain
If you haven't figured it out by now, you probably are just looking at the pretty pictures - in which case you're not even reading this so the point is moot. But. I am a HUGE fan of the Balloon Blast Show.
What was once a weekly show gave way to a monthly digest has now given way to a bi-monthly installment. (Crowd: awwwwwwww) But they've gathered a good Patreon following (Crowd: *cheer!*) so they invest a lot of time in these bonus videos. This one was a 4-parter (Crowd: *wild cheering!*) starting with a banjo (Crowd: *abrupt awkward silence*)
... the first instrument of the Balloon Blast Show Rubber Band! (Crowd: *canned laughter*)
(cue intro music)
Sam has a great attention to detail and, as always, gives very clear instructions both visually and descriptively. This one was pretty easy and I think looks great. I made the drum a little bit big on my first attempt, so I had to compensate with an extra bit (mocha neck). Also ... *gimpy bubble sigh*.
