[MiiukiSama]

What a MAD man... Love it! hahahaha

[MrTylerplatte]

I like you your cool maby I'll buy a flute off you some day

[cesaretibr]

And now... SIDE TWO!!! The funniest moment of the video! Who can wait for this?

[YknotLearnall]

LoL- Great spiel!

Just picked up this strange looking instrument from a neighbor, discovered via the web, it's one of your concert tuned "Skinny" bamboo saxes in B flat.

Never played a sax before, discovered the sweet sounds they make. Looking forward to learning how to create some of my own once I learn how to play it prolificantly.

Hope to meet you one day and hear you play live.

[emensour78]

mate, it's brilliant!! you're a master - in both playing and giggling!

cheers!

[HardPencilSketch]

This guy is a comedic and musical genius

[arbonac]

Friggin hi-larious!

[calichigal]

I consider myself lucky to have seen Erik in person at Ren Faires in Texas. :o)

[TarPaprShack]

Thats good work there. If the flute market runs flat you could get a gig in promotions.

[AndreaGanora]

[MusicEvryDay]

BY GEORGE IT'S BREAK-DANCING! I'm sold!

[SavageInsight]

It's like watching a very successful PBS documentary

[SavageInsight]

The "major flute" has a much sweeter sound, with a more sunrise/set resonance

[japanesesen]

SPLENDID!!!!

[sygmusic06]

[zben504]

I was waiting for this to be really gay but you're hilarious!

[twiggymac]

couldn't you just keep that major one and play it in the minor tonality. like if it's tuned in C, start on the A and go up the scale instead of the C

[LarkeLyrics]

Is he just messing around with arpeggiating at 9:40 or is that from somewhere? The timing sounds really familiar...

[squirrelmaster89]

Ordered an end-blown shakuhachi from this gentleman, trying to be patient.... but I CANT WAIT!!!! check out his website definitely one of if not the most legitimate place for bamboo flutes the world over

[guitarhippies]

i was i the process of making a sax flute similar to that one, eccept with two double reed mouthpieces, to make a drone sax. thank you very much for the inspiration and awesomeness!!

[tizenhatkarakter]

what is the melody at 1:10? I know it but i don't know how it called.

[squirrelmaster89]

@tizenhatkarakter Greensleeves sir

[Amirikl1]

"And now... SIDE TWOOO!" ahahahahahaahha! :D Hilarious!

[HARVSTO]

[TheFluteture]

I wish you still sold that giant flute!

[swefke]

[psiFellow]

Man, you got holes in your flutes. Who'd buy that?

[iGUESSmaybeNOT]

I love this video. When my day is stressing i play this video. just fun to watch and Erik is an awesome person. God bless :)

[rezartsy]

[tscotty32]

@rezartsy I have many from Erik and all his flutes are amazing. What i love the most is that when you play one you can smell the scent of the burned holes of the flute and to me its a pleasant smell. I have the Kiowa love flute..so easy to play and fun.

[Saphira4Christ]

I don't know what's more intresting the flutes or the acting...

I love this man and his music. I met him about 20 years ago at Scarborough Fair and bought about 7 flutes from him over the years. I miss him.. wish he'd come back to the fair but I guess he got to popular and busy :( Gonna order some more from his website.
