- Tell us something.: I play the whistle, I used to play flute but have Dupuytren's contracture so can only play whistle now which is fine. Mostly play sessions around Canterbury Kent area.

Re: Tommy Makem on whistle
Thanks for the post. I never heard this one before. I saw Tommy perform twice in my life. Once in Bridgeport, Connecticut and the other time in Westchester, New York. Both venues were rather small so the audience was close to the stage. He was so very, very, good. Somehow, he's still alive for me, including the Clancey brothers.
