I've seen neon circuits similar to this, where the lamps fire sequentially 
rather than randomly. Last time I built one was a Radio Shack 'PBOX' kit in 
the mid 1970's. This circuit is different because it has 6 bulbs instead of 
5, and the audio section.

 I would triple-check the capacitor connections because a mistake is very 
easy here and it will likely cause the circuit to latch rather than 
oscillate as it should. (reminds me of the joke about one EE griping that 
his amplifier only oscillates, and the other EE who complains his 
oscillator only amplifies....).

Thanks for posting the schematic; I lost my copy years ago and never spent 
the time to find it and understand how it works. Now I will.
