BRISBANE, Australia, A family feud in Australia turned violent and led to a man being beaten with bats and a didgeridoo, an aboriginal musical instrument, a court in Brisbane heard.

The court dismissed an appeal by Bronson Terrence Stallan, 31, convicted of assault occasioning bodily harm in the May 2007 beating, The (Brisbane) Courier reported Friday.

Bad blood between two families led to a verbal clash outside a Brisbane hotel, the court heard, which became violent.

Stallan was armed with a stick, according to testimony, but others joined the beating with weapons "ranging from baseball bats to didgeridoos."

A didgeridoo is a droning wind instrument made from a hollowed-out tree branch or trunk.

In his 2009 trial, Stallan was convicted of the assault charge.

His appeal was dismissed by unanimous judgment, the Courier reported.

Never bring a stick to a didgeridoo fight.

Talk softly, but carry a big didgeridoo.

Didgeridoo unto other before they didgeridoo unto you.

These jokes just write themselves. Good thing I can cut/paste didgeridoo.

Looks like a club to me - ban them, for the children.

An obvious arsenal of Assault Didgeridoos.

Is that a Didgeridoo in your pocket or are you just glad to see me?
