Comment:

Hooray for funny instruments! The first time I ever saw a saw being played was in the movie "Delicatessen" and I've been mesmerized ever since. You can see more info and download this radio show here: http://asucd.ucdavis.edu/radio/showme.cfm?show=993&title=Musical%20Toybox&back=_grid

I love these! Last time I saw a saw being played was on 'The Richard and Judy Show' (UK TV) - a very earnest guy was very earnestly transmitting Saint-Saens 'The Swan' - poor old Judy kept pissin' herself. What do you call a saw-player?

I use to play one of these. I found it washed up on a beach. That's right, it was a sea-saw. Look, I'm sorry, I just couldn't help myself. I cannot take this mix seriously; which I'm sure was your intention. Please tell me it is so. If not, shame on me and I promise to do better next time.
