Excerpts... (Didgeridoo music plays over exterior and interior images of a bar, it's patrons, and close-ups of didgeridoos) Voice Over: It's a sound not normally heard in these parts... even at this east side bar that embraces travel. But, what looks like a fancy piece of wood, caught the eye of local musician Reid Runzheimer. Reid: For me, different sounds resonate with me. They become things I need to acquire. Voice Over: On a trip to Australia, he picked up several didgeridoos and hasn't put them down. ... Voice Over: The sound is not easy to master. Reid: You flutter your lips and you snort air in through your nose and exhale, seemingly at the same time. Voice Over: While it's an instrument in the shadows here in the States, in Australia it is as common as the guitar. Reid: Aborigines thought of the sound as the earth talking in some ways. It is a haunting sound that is almost hypnotic. Voice Over: A sound that Runzheimer and others would like to bring up from down-under.
