http://www.kazoos.com/

that's your online source for kazoos; it came right up when i put it in a search engine. reminds me of spatula city on UHF.

is it just me, or is "Rick" a bit too happy about being burried in kazoos?

look on ebay for the Kazooka.

I bought one a while ago and love it. it's a plastic kazoo with a piezo element on it and a cable. run it through a pedalboard, run it through a vocoder, you name it. it rules.
