Guitarman,
welcome to our Forum! We have something in common, in fact I am italian-american too.
Yes, I was born in Italy and still live there, but have been so many times to U.S. that I consider myself almost an immigrant...
Besides, some of my best friends live there; I have already met those on the West Coast (except Terry, but I hope to catch up with that) and plan to meet sooner or later all the others, both on the East Coast and in the middle.
Where in Italy do you come from?
By the way, on this Forum there are a lot of italian-americans and -believe it or not- even our dear Uncle Dave is half-italian.
Andrea

A couple of months ago I went to this place and the Entertainer was a guitarist who had a drum machine mounted next to him and a bass pedal connected to a module. He punched the drum machine, used his left foot for Bass, and played guitar with his hands and sang with his mouth Sat on a stool using his behind and balanced himself with his right foot.

It was impressive...I thought only arranger players could do such a full sounding one man show

Just an idea, and welcome aboard

Mosiqaar,
Larry (Beakybird) can do better than that: he was able to add a maraca to the show you've just described (but he was not sitting on a stool...)

I'm sorry, I can't explain...it was a joke made by Larry some time ago when he wrote a parody of someone doing a one-man-show where, besides all the other instruments, he was "rotating" a maraca "inserted" in a part of the body which is usually hidden.
(Try to use your imagination...)
