    No, because there was an unicyclist in Austria playin accordian on a 7'
    unicycle, while idling 1ft extended AND balancing a broom on the
    extended leg. I think this was on the show of the EJC of 1996.

    Wheel walking while even just wearing an accordion would be difficult
    because the accordion adds a whole lotta weight up front. I wouldn't
    even want to try it. Too much risk of falling off and damaging the
    accordion.

    There are smaller accordions that weigh less and those would be more
    manageable and easier to ride with. The accordion I have is a big one.
    Bulky and heavy.

    Playing an accordion is easy. Playing it well is more difficult. 🙂

  12. I know Yoggi's learning to play the accordion... what I heard last time
    we met was quite good.
    he probably aims to clear a 5m drop with feet on crown while playing the
    "Amélie Poulain" soundtrack😄

    Threadjack: JC, I would be interested in hearing which accordian
    players you consider to be "tops". In return for your response, I'll
    make sure you experience some fine accordian solos on the Sennheisers.

    My vote:

    Best: Garth Hudson
    Next: Clifton Chenier

  15. There's a video somewhere in the gallery of a German riding around while
    playing an accordian. I don't know how to find it, unfortunately.
