Who's that philosopher who once said something about the fact that a falling tree in a forest might not actually be falling if no one is around to see it fall?

I always wondered if the other trees would point at it and laugh.

I can't help on your questions but WOW what a nice looking whistle.

Could anyone direct me to a link or explain what I need to do when I soap my whistles? The 300 page manual that should come with a whistle wasn't included with any of the whistles I've bought so far :wink: . I've only been seriously messing with whistles for a few months now. But it amazes me to see...

The link doesn't work for me kevin. Just says 'page cannot be displayed'.

Buy me a ticket so I can go with you

I posted this in the Trad music forum and didn't get any replies; I figured maybe some of you don't read that forum. So here goes again. Does anyone know where I can buy Loscoe State Opera's Dawn Bird CD? The link from their site seems to be broken and I can't find it anywhere else.

Thanks redwolf. I was reading the introduction to the book. It talks about how Irish music is a very social music and how hermits rarely play Irish music. Well, I'm not a hermit, but I do live in an area where (best I can tell) there is not very much Irish music being played. The closest pub I know ...

Spoons are something I was never coordinated enough (or not smart enough ) to play

Well, I finally got my Irish whistle tunebook and I must say that I'm intimidated. Up until now, I was mostly playing military or marching songs on my whistle with the exception of Roisin the Beau. Now that I have a book full of Irish songs I don't really know where to begin. I put in the CD that ca...

To me the implication of your original post seems clear: that you would have found aggressive action by the US against certain countries simply because a few people had been filmed dancing in the streets there to be an acceptable course of action. I don't think anyone is saying that all Iraqis are ...

I've been told that cornbread didn't catch on in the northern part of North America as well as it did in the south because there were problems keeping weevils out of the meal. *shrug, not sure if that's true. But in the days of packaged mix I don't suppose that's an issue anymore.

The manipulation of public opinion by the media through the dissemination of incomplete or distorted information is a serious business. As it has been ever since there was a public opinion to manipulate. I doubt that the Roman soldiers who were fighting Germanic tribes were told that they were figh...

:party: Ok, now that I've admitted that I have a problem. I'm open to suggestions as to what whistle I should buy next. My first purchase was a Clark Sweetone, Walton Little Black D, and a Clare D. All soprano. I've played those for a little over a month. So, where should I go next? I still don't wa...

Anyone know where I can get a copy of their CD? The link on their page is broke and I can't find any sites that sell it.

thanks

Hey Phil, received my cd Saturday. Really enjoyed the Trad music and the mixtures of other styles.
