Avanutria and Wyobadger explain, with no words, exactly why one should leave one's slide whistle at home when going to a session.

ROFL! Looks like fun. My daughter's favorite song :smile:
Speakin' of It's a Small World...we were just at Disney World & I saw those sliding whistles for sale, right next to a Feadog whistle/CD kit that I almost bought just because it was there LoL. Thanks for the demonstration!
The woven wood beckons...

A couple of times on this board I've mentioned the Nihilist Spasm Band. It's a group of people who know nothing about music and have never learned to play any instruments. Nevertheless, they do play and have had gigs in Japan, where noise music is supposed to be popular. They also had a regular gig at my old stomping ground, the York Hotel. They have had instruments such as a home-made slide clarinet and a theramin. You guys sound a whole lot better than them. Go for it. Japan beckons.

LOL!!! :lol:
Light spills into the hidden valley,
Illuminating the falls, paths, and
The breathtaking Elvish dwelling
Set back among great trees.
Lilting strains of Elven songs fill my heart;
I am finally home.

Tell us something.: Been a fluter, citternist, and uilleann piper; committed now to the way of the harp.

Oh, yeah: also a mod here, not a spammer. A matter of opinion, perhaps.

Tell us something.: I play the first flute Jon Cochran ever made but haven't been very active on the board the last 9-10 years. Life happens I guess...I owned a keyed M&E flute for a while and I kind of miss it.
