FREE didgeridoo, FREE shipping! Darryl Dikarrnga F mago. Ends 21st December 2009

Here's another special promotion, a free didgeridoo plus free worldwide shipping of this Darryl Dikarrnga F mago, made in 2007 whilst Darryl was artist-in-residence at iDIDJ Australia. It is the last instrument we have from Darryl.

This mago (Western Arnhem Land didgeridoo) measures 120 long, with a mouthpiece diameter of 28 mm (no wax but with mouthpiece insert) and a bell diameter of 9 cm. Weight is 3.3 kg. It plays in the key of F fundamental.

Check out the following video clip of Darryl cutting mago in the bush, this promotional instrument was cut during that trip:

The rules for this promotion are simple. We are running a campaign to raise funds for Aboriginal craftspeople, artists and didgeridoo players, guys like Darryl Dikarrnga and Adam Marrilaga who suffered ill health in 2009 and who needed to get away from their community to recover their strength and physical well-being. This fund-raising initiative by us at iDIDJ Australia allows us to continue our efforts at helping those Aboriginal people most in need. Money raised will be used towards airfares, food, clothes, and medical requirements.

As part of this fund-raising campaign, we are appealing to all our YouTube subscribers, friends, fellow didgeridoo enthusiasts, and supporters to make a donation by following the link below:

http://www.ididj.com.au/ididjphilanthropy.html

The person who makes the largest donation by 10.00 AM AEST (Australian Eastern Standard Time), 21st December 2009, wins this didgeridoo plus free worldwide shipping. Winner will be announced in this video. You must be subscribed to this channel to participate. You are welcome to make multiple donations, the total of your donations by 10.00 AM AEST, 21st December 2009, will be counted as one entry.

This promotion starts on the 13th of December and ends on the 21st of December. Donations made before or after this period are not considered for this promotion.

Winner must supply name, delivery address, and contact phone number for shipping purposes. We will ship the mago on the 21st of December, and you should have it in time for Christmas as a little gift to yourself from us :-)

Good luck and thank you to all who have supported us during the year!

Congratulations to Steve Sklar of Minneapolis, USA, for winning this mago, and to Steve and everyone for your kind donations!

[ididjaustralia]

I won't be posting what people have donated as this is a fund-raising campaign and not an auction, let's keep it in the spirit of what this is all about... it isn't about winning the mago, that's a bonus, but what it is really about is raising funds in this time of need. Thank you to everyone who has or will join in this campaign.

I swear there is another guy playing this same instrument. some chainsaw guy i think

[ididjaustralia]

No, Peter "Chainsaw" Atjpurrki did not play this mago.

[ididjaustralia]

"Chainsaw" is the nickname of Peter Atjpurrki, originally from Maningrida but now living on his wife's country at Belyuen.
