    what a marvelous instrument to be sure. i bought one yesterday and i was wondering if any of you know how to play it, i can just about get a basic drone (not very good though) but any tips on how to play properly would be greatly appreciated. thanks:p

    to be able to play the didgeridoo you have to be able to do circular breathing which is a weird sort of breathing where you blow out at the same time as breathing in. I still haven't mastered it yet and have been palying this annoying didgeridoo for about a year now lol. I can make it sound like i can play it but am still yet to master the technique of circular breathing. also, i find that blowing into the didgeridoo with the side of my mouth helps to get more control over the sound rather than straight blowing.
