Yea, I don't know about that Matthias...A shirt with the saying "Canadian Slingers are Dense" just wouldn't look right...

Maybe it would be an innuendo for something other than intelligence? Roll Eyes

I meant it in a 'my atomic structure is more closely packed than usual' kind of way....But intelligence, or even geography would be good too  Wink
Hey Bjärn, I listened to some khoomei singing from the sites you posted. I did not know what it was before. There are a couple of people in Vancouver who do that. I have always thought it was about as far away from anything I am used to hearing as is possible and still be from a human. Very interesting. I may have to try to do some of the lessons and see if I can actually (sing?) do that...

How about " Slingers got stones" eh?

Khoomei is the stuff done in Ghengis Blues by Kongar-Ol Ondar if you've ever seen it.

I've seen hijacked threads before, but this one is cool.  Two different conversations going on at once, with the voices intermixed.

Bjärn, I read somewhere that some truck drivers in Russia got quite good at khoomei.  All those hours of driving across Siberia with nothing to do.  Gives me something to do on my commute to work.  But I'm not very good yet.  Thanks for the tip on the how-to page, I will check it out.  I listened to one of the Yat Kha tracks.  Is it one guy singing, or are there several?  I cannot tell.

There are way too many people living over on the East Side (of Canada).
I would like to take this opportunity to invite Bjärn, that Holly girl and any other Easterners to drop everything they have right now and move out to the beauty of the West...We have oceans, mountains and all sorts of stuff. Once thing we have that I know you don't is a complete Lack of Snow. I had to cut my lawn last week and there are still leaves on the trees.
We could have a slinging/Khomeini competition.

Dale you are invited too because we need it to be an international event, maybe we could sling for peace across the border, or sling pieces across the border whichever one is easier.
