Re: -On the idea of playing digital watches and such...



It's even better if you have someone call you while you're playing and 
have them
talk.  I did this at the Santa Cruz loop fest this summer.  My wife called 
me
from the audience.  It was pretty funny.  The speaker was a little feeble
though.  Maybe a contact mic would help.  Those "talkabouts" two way 
radios also
work really well.  Talk about channeling.
