As far as I know this is the only video in captivity of me playing...at least on youtube. Taken about 1:30 AM in a jam session at "Evart" (the Original Dulcimer Players Funfest). Simultaneous improvisation is fun, though sometimes we forget to play the melody....
I'm not on youtube yet.
After one year on the whistle I'm still not very good, though I do have one tune I'm not altogether displeased with.
Maybe in a month or two. When I do, I'll post a link here. (But don't worry, I'll hide my ugly mug.)
I've found several board members who play whistles, flutes, and UPs on the 'tube, but they can name themselves.
Tell us something.: Long ago, I was told that I faked iTrad whistle work very well. I took that comment to heart. 20 years of private lessons - and many, many hours of rehearsal later - I certainly hope I have improved...
Hi, Nomi. Our American Celtic folk band has never had any videos done, professionally. However, our friends and family have created a few, over the years. I have been able to quickly find two, for you. To whit:
Not the best quality recordings, but here I am. (Or there I was - all these recordings were made in my flat in Hongkong, which I left in August 2009.) http://www.youtube.com/user/baholton?feature=mhum

Beautiful video! It brought tears to this old man's eyes. We rescue any stray cat or dog that comes by. We currently have a cat we call Chubby. He's a lot like Linus.
A flock of crows can bring an eagle down...but it doesn't make the eagle any less.
Glad to hear your keeping busy, I very much plan on being part of your demand.
