Ah my favorite show. No wait. I Dream of Jeanie. No wait. Bewitched-the Dick York years. Both had bitchin' theme songs. And that Instrument is out of the Space Age, Man. Dig it.

Great looking & sounding instrument Russell.

Love the choice of tune (Bewitched was on UK TV too) and the special moment at the end of your performance was a very nice touch. :D

Love it! That show was a somewhat integral part of my childhood. Loved the extra little touches and the execution was excellent.

After the utterly insipid Will Ferrell move remake, the following snippet appeared on an episode of Family Guy.

That sounds great.
Can this one be done on Stick?

I think almost any song can be played on The Stick. You just have to capture the essence of the song via what The Stick can do. Some songs will work better than others, but most will work well.

Is the strumming a concern? There isn't any on the original.
