      If you care for vegetable instruments, you should check up The Vegetable Orchestra. The Vegetable Orchestra Literally Plays with Their Food[^] (YouTube) is a nice presentation of how they make and use their instruments. For a concert performance without disturbing voice comments, try The Vegetable Orchestra - Transplants[^] - there are several others at YouTube. This definitely is not "Techno" style - all their instruments are unplugged, all acoustic. I didn't see them playing water melon, but it seems like their standard bass drum is a pumkin.

          Fair enough if you reject any link to YouTube. I never heard of malware spread by ordinary YouTube watching, but I may be ignorant. If what you intend to say is that 'I have against YouTube in general, and I will not support it by navigating to it', you are of course welcome to - but you draw much more attention to YouTube that way, making people a lot more aware of it. Either you should state why you refuse to watch YouTube movies, or people will as 'Why not? There is no reason for your rejection'. Besides: I could of course repeatedly state that my favorite hobby is to not collect stamps. Who would care about what I do not do? Who would care about your not watching a YouTube movie? If you do not trust it to be a YouTube link even if the bottom line (in most browsers, or a separate field) says so, then the implication is that you do not trust any new link, no matter how authenticated it is - only those links that you know from before. That would limit your web browsing down to what I would consider useless. It may be sufficient for you, though!

            Perhaps another interpretation of the fine gentleman's statement is he considers viewing people playing w/ their food a not pleasurable experience. "... as likely as lightning striking a leprechaun whilst riding a unicorn."

              no no no - that was not my point! :) I am not going to watch a video named Techno Melon. Something is just wrong with that. :laugh: <--- see? :-D

                thanks Bernard. I posted a clarification. Apologies to the fruit musician. :laugh:

                  I agree. I am a depression baby and was taught to never, ever, waste or play with food. I still don't. During the war: "clean your plate, the children in Europe are starving". Not sure of the correlation. (I didn't click the link either, nothing to do with security)

                  >64 It’s weird being the same age as old people. Live every day like it is your last; one day, it will be.

                    If you watch the YT movie from The Vegetable Orchestra (I gave the link in an earlier post), you'll see that the food isn't wasted: After the concert, they cut up their instruments and boil a vegetable soup to be served to the audience. I guess that is more that what can be said about most Halloween pumpkins.

                      So watch the video referenced from the post you were replying to :-)
