I like it too...I have to ask Bob to make me one one of these days.fel bautista wrote:bob- nice avatar-Fel Bautista
Great tionol, everyone! Thanks to all the SoCal pipers, especially Gabriel and his family. I am really enjoying my reed, newly improved by Benedict.
Somehow I ended up getting a B Burke whistle too...I purposely stayed away from temptation for most of the weekend, but then on Sunday evening, Joey said "Justine, try this whistle," and I was doomed. (I'm enjoying the whistle, too).

I don't know if I met this Tom...I met Tommykleen, though, and he does look like his avatar. ( Does he still have that one with the lemur?) It was great to meet some of you in real life, anyway.bwilson wrote: Tom, I would never have recognized you from your avatar as the guy I ate lunch with on Saturday

Nice to see so many San Diegans here this year, too.

Alas, I don't look like my avator. I was the older, short, bald dude with the K&Q half set. I was in your class and was admittly the crappiest piper in that group. I sat next to Joey.
I hope you got your reed fixed up. You sounded like you are doing well on UP, even with that out-of-tune reed. Keep playing, you sound great.

- Tell us something.: I am interested in the uilleann pipes and their typical -and broader- use. I have been composing and arranging for the instrument lately. I enjoy unusual harmonic combinations on the pipes. I use the pipes to play music of other cultures.

Oh, I think you used to have a different one. Didn't you have one that was a cute little monkey with big eyes? (I hope I'm not offending you!)tommykleen wrote:"I don't know if I met this Tom...I met Tommykleen," Justine

That's MISTER cute little monkey with big eyes to you!
That avatar was a picture of an aye-aye: nature's most amazing animal.
Check them out at the SF Zoo. The only place in N.America where you can see them in public. Your mind will be blown. Guaranteed.
tap-tap-tap.

Oh, I remember you now. I think you sounded pretty good yourself, as I recall. I thought it was a good class because we were all pretty much at the same level. Did the class meet on Sunday or not?wolvy wrote:Justine -

Yes, Benedict fixed up my reed good as new! (Tears of joy were shed). I am still getting used to playing it the way it is now...the reed is harder now, and the pressure is different than before for different notes, especially the back D.
BTW, are you saying you WANT to look like Mongo!!!???
