all happend on my way back to wales with my shamisen… loads asked what instrument i had (at differnt times) i told them and abit of history an stuff :slight_smile:

1 family (australlians) knew about it and called it a mandolin at first… BUT! to my supprize they watched austraillias got talent and saw that shamisen player and the guitar player

just thought you would wanna know every bit of shamisen out there helps to increase the size of our population ^.^

We may have all seen it by now, but in case not,

Complete with pyrotechnics! A very awesome performance! :slight_smile:

Kudos to you Cana, for sharing shamisen to your friends and family, and your roommate! (If shamisen isn’t already fun enough playing alone, it’s even better with a music buddy)

I love those guys!

Thanks :slight_smile:
Im afraid bachido is the last of my family though ^^

will continue to share it with friends and strangers alike but I always mention bachido as the meeting place for shamisen players

Noriko and geroge are awesome :3

awesome (0_o)

So, this got me to thinking - why haven’t we seen any shamisen entries to America’s Got Talent!!!

Well let’s see… Who do we got in America right now?
Someone ought to get on Mike Penny’s case about that!
Penny could Definately represent!

Mike was actually shown on the CBS Sunday Morning show, which did a feature on the Autotune the News folks. They were talking about all the folks who have “covered” Autotune the News bros., and sure enough, Mike made it to the list! Granted, it was just for 3 seconds, but hey, 3 seconds of airtime is longer than 2 seconds!

hehe ^.^ awesome
