Got some video of it, but as it was so crowded my cameraman/husband had to film from behind the speakers, and it didn't really capture the feeling, so thought I'd do a video of it at home.<br /> The song is called "Is Anybody there?" and a more basic version of it (no beat and pre Octave pedal!) is on the album "Playing (No Rules)" album which is available here <a href="http://bemuzic.bandcamp.com/album/playing-no-rules">http://bemuzic.bandcamp.com/album/playing-no-rules</a><br /> For the beat I'm using a home made mic, made with a DM-13 mic capsule (cost about a fiver from Maplins) stuffed into an old Wasabi Peanut tin.<br /> On the pedal board I've got, left to right - Boss RC-20XL Loop Station, Boss GE-7 Equaliser, Boss Overdrive/Distortion OS-2, electro-harmonix octave multiplexer, Boss chromatic tuner TU-3.<br /> At the back is a Morley A B switch and an Eneloop pedal juice which powers it all.<br /> For pics and more details about the Diddley Bow and Bob Harrison pick up go here <a href="http://www.cigarboxnation.com/photo/albums/didley-bow-with-bob-harrison-lone-star-pick-up">http://www.cigarboxnation.com/photo/albums/didley-bow-with-bob-harrison-lone-star-pick-up</a>
