Compassion Lost

GK -Compassion Lost

Yes, it's been a while since we put up a video. Still we wouldn't want to skip on our annual Christmas song! Well, more a song about why the world doesn't deserve Christmas this year, so it's a blues... For the first time Mirjam (the lady of the Casa) plays the Satellite dish bass, Gerrit is singing and playing RBG (recycled box guitar) my twin brother plays slide on another 3-string RBG and our long lost brother came to visit us from the USA and well... plays some bells. All the instruments were build by Triple Chaos in the Not Just Sawdust workshop, and only reclaimed wood and recycled materials were used. In all, a very different video than our normal contributions to te world of woodworking and recycling... Happy Holidays !!

The world isn't Christmas worthy
