hey! We are practically neighbors!

Mike and I just moved from our lovely country town in PA back to his home town of Clifton NJ.

Nice to meet you, hope you enjoy it here.

Default Now there's a sentence I am sure I have never seen before:
I can hold my own on a didgeridoo.

Good to have you on the board Jkorber. Is there a basic instruction book that one would pick up to learn to play the fife? And what about a basic, not too expensive fife? It's pretty slim pickin's here in southern Indiana, as far as finding a fife. I know nothing about them. Any hints? (I can read music a little, you know...All Good Boys Do Fine, or is it Good Boys Do Fine Always?.. and FACE,...but that's about it. I can read drum music, but all of those notes are on the same line. Is it possible to teach yourself to play the fife? From a book?
