THIS IS CRAZY!
honestly, I don't know how he doesn't pass out doing this. Flight of the Bumble Bee is a popular piece for bands to play in the movies, I like it because its fast and playful pace and tune are attention grabbing! He uses the higher range of the flute very well and even though when he beatboxes the notes are slightly airy, the tune and accuracy are never lost. 
I find Eric Stephenson very talented and I quite enjoy his videos they are original and well done! After watching the video I was wondering if the way he plays is mostly because of double breathing? It seems like the believable suggestion.

Tonite I practiced for 40minutes. I played the sesame street songs and some excersizes in the purple book.
The sesame street songs are fun. 
I was working in the purple book to get the hang of the fingerings I dont use as often so that way I can recall them when they do come up and I am not frantically searching in the back of the book.
