I've been here a few years, although not quite an "aeon" ago, and
not yet a casualty of "passing" into a state of being dead.
Bright Regards,
George

I remember getting really excited when Peter first posted the idea of
the
Joshua Tree Didjeridu Festival and getting my father to come with me...
showing
up in the windstorm in a dirt parking lot next to a chain link fence.
Things
have changed!
I got on the list a couple years before Allan Shockley's last February
Tuscon
party. Dave Crowder was still a didj player back then, Chad Butler had
not made
a didjeridu yet, Guy was a regular poster...
Chad Butler and I decided to drive down from Portland for that last big
bash in
Arizona and it was well worth it. We made the drive in an old diesel
VW Rabbit
he had just bought from some guy for $800 a few days earlier, I
remember it
cost only $80 of diesel to do round trip from Portland to Tuscon.
Ahh, and Dave's 2 years of Summer Solstice gatherings in Boulder -
great times
for sure.
What other favorite memories are out there?
With big deep didjeridu blessings from Oregon,
Tom

Hey Tony,
Thanks for the link. Curiously, the old didj with sugarbag beeswax on
that page is one of mine. It is a mid-1900s stick from the NW Northern
Territory region.

My my, plenty of old timers indeed! I'm just curious, but does anyone
know what Sean Borman is up to these days? In times of sadness and
contemplation, I find it comforting to reflect on times past and how the
didjeridu has brought us together. We did not know it when the Mills List
was first created, but somehow some of our lives have crossed paths and
intertwined even. It makes me realise that this is a wonderful world
afterall, and the tenuous connections we have to each other thru the
didjeridu even more so.
Well, just wanted to say hi to everyone, nice to know you're still
around and kickin'!
Guan

Nope, not by a long shot. While I haven't done much with content, I
did change the looks along with adding a site search tool.
I've got some extra time on my hands for a while, so if you want to
update your info on the list members page, send it in...don't forget a mug
shot.
For those with a didj related web site, if you are not on my list, send
me your URL and please place a link back on your site.
Anyone have any articles you'd like published here? Send them in. I
think there is a category already there for it.
I'm interested in getting the discography updated. Check it out and
send info properly formatted.
You can reply to this email. please put "didj" in the subject line.

Hear Hear, Guan!
While this old tree we call the Mills List, or The Famous Didjeridu
List as it was officially known for a long time, has been quite
dormant as of late, its roots run deep, and it has been the seed of
countless friendships, interactions, and manifestations.
Could the Didge Fest and other gatherings have even been spawned
without this magical conduit connecting folks together near and far?
So many things can be traced back to this list, almost like a mini
study in genealogy. I know I would have never started the oddmusic
site which now inspires about 10,000 people a day, without meeting
Dr. Guy Grant and others on this list. Most of my few Best Friends,
were brought into my life as a result of the Mills list.
On a smaller scale, the gig I played last Friday could never have
happened without the lists existence, since I played with 2 long
distance friends I met 4 or 5 years ago through the list and later
didge fests. My current musical direction, in which didge plays a
more minor role, would not have blossomed without it.
Yes, this old tree, just a simple computer server on the outside,
with its serendipitous roots weaving its magic behind the scenes, has
enriched so many lives...
Would Brandi Chase have become Brandi Graves or have even met Randy
without the Mills List leading her on a trek to California on a trip
meeting different list members on the way? I thought her last stop
was at my place, but then she decided to make a quick trip to San
Diego, which ultimately led to Arnhem land and a life with our Randin.
It comforted us in sad times. Remember the many calls for drones to
help different members' loved ones pass peacefully and make the
journey into the great beyond?
And in celebration. Remember "Solstice Didge Around the World"? 24
hours of "Drones at Dawn" as the sun greeted the world in every time
zone.
Is calling the List a "tree of knowledge" taking the metaphor too
far? Well, for the longest time, it really was the only source of
information you could get online about the didjeridu, as well as
offline for many.
Didjeridu Planet compilation CD project? Not without this
place. And of course Karl K, and later David B.
Even when the List itself was sick and down and out, it spawned
things like the Joyous Noise List, which later brought didge music
for free to thousands of listeners, thanks to the efforts of John
Madill.
Of course, the List wouldn't really be anything without the all the
wonderful people who have coursed through its veins, the ones who've
touched our lives, and breathed the real life into the list. Talk
about Full Circular Breathing!
And we all owe a HUGE thanks to Toyoji Tomita for starting and
keeping the list going all these years.
Even though the drone of the list is more subdued these days, as
opposed to the 20 or 30 messages it used to churn out each and every
day, the spark that Toyoji helped create still shines like the light
of a huge corroboree bonfire in the hearts of many of us, and my
world is better because of it.
Hmmmm...... maybe a worldwide drone for Toyoji is in order! :-)
-- John
