Beer bottle blues

February 18, 2009 by Chris

I’m not sure, but I think that this form of music is a dying art. Passed on from one musician to another … or maybe drunk to drunk!

The technique looks simple enough. Trying to tune this instrument is another story!

My wife was just asking me if it has a carrying case and I just shrugged my head … I think it comes in a cardboard box with a single or dual handle?!

The bass instrument must be a big silver tube, heavy when full and quite familiar with the frat house institutions.

I wonder what the instruments techie is called, any ideas?

Keep on Jammin’

    I bet if you could tune those that it would sound really neat with practice. I would like to see a video and hear the sound of these fine instruments. Thanks for sharing.

    What a cool idea. Tune them to the pentatonic blues scale by filling them with the proper amount of liquid and let ‘er rip. It gives a whole new meaning to the term bottleneck blues.
