Star Wars Cantina Band Song on Chapman Stick

[reposted link from boingboing.net]

The Cantina Song, from the movie Star Wars, is a funny scene with alien musicians as background for Han Solo and a bounty hunter. Here Guillaume Estace plays his version of the “Cantina Theme” from Star Wars on the Chapman Stick. The Stick is a type of specialized electric guitar designed for two-handed tapping. (Some call it ‘finger tapping’ or ‘touchstyle’). He can play bass and melody simultaneously, much like a piano.

This instrument, along with Warr Guitar, and Mobius Megatar, are great fun to play, surprisingly easy to learn quickly (IF you have the right method), and produce some great music.
