I was playing on the steps of the Franklin Hotel, and this kid who plays a Boehm style flute got facinated with the whistle. I sat and talked with her and her parents about a whistle for about an hour. They ran off vowing to buy a whistle! Told 'em whistles were cheap, portable and looked like toys! HA! Wait until she has to have a Tully! This is really neat when some stanger has never been exposed to the whistle, and you get to preach the whistle gospel!

If you REALLY wanna spread the whistle Gopspel, carry one or 2 of your least favorite whistles when you play in public ( 'fess up, with WHOA, you have a couple you don't like...) and GIVE them to really interested people, along with a mini- lesson.
