The New Hobbit Hole

[HairOfTheDog]

I made a few sounds just now with mine, I try to play it a little when you guys talk about it... but I wouldn't call it music!

[Overtaxed]

I've heard that they're softer than my Clarke

Guess what....Freepers in the area are going to start getting together once a month at.....are you ready for this?....Tir na nog Irish Pub!

Listen, I think you should really consider getting a Susato Kildare. No kidding, it's a totally different experience than playing on a metal whistle. I find myself choosing which whistle I think would sound better with a particular tune. Swallowtail Jig sounds best on Feadóg, Hector the Hero is hauntingly pretty on the Susato.

Keep at it! I thought I'd do the dishes before I start for the night.

Just practice the scales at first, Hair...get those tones coming out clearly, then work into the short tunes.

Get thee behind me! :)

OK! - But sometimes it makes the same exact sound whether I cover any holes or not!

And sometimes I can't make anything but high screechy noises - even when I try not to blow too hard. [sniff] I am afraid I am not a natural.

At least it amuses the dog. Or frightens her. She comes running anyway.

Hi, guys. I'm having a bad day here, but it's almost over. On the bright side my power cord came so, with luck, I'll have a computer again.... I'll let you know asap, it's time for Bible Study now. Stay safe!

[Overtaxed]

At least it amuses the dog.

I don't think my cat's amused.

[2Jedismom]

Why are you having a bad day?? I logged off for a while after I posted about my whistle and just saw your post.

[HairOfTheDog]

Hope your computer is fixed and you are back with us soon!

Maybe this will cheer you up!

Extended FOTR Script Review

[ecurbh]

Hello all. Time for my periodic check-in. Had another busy week, with a couple of extra concerts. On 9-11 a large group of area churches had a service outdoors on the downtown plaza. It was estimated that there were 3,000 people there, which is huge for this small town. Here is a picture of yours truly playing:

Unfortunately, I have to work tomorrow, and have another concert in the evening. I'll be back eventually!

I don't have time right now to backtrack through the posts very far. Has there been any more discussion lately of Entmoot plans?

[HairOfTheDog]

:~( Your pic isn't loading for us!

We haven't talked about entmoot lately... no more final plans than we had before!

[Overtaxed]

When are you going to upload a clip for us to listen to?

[ecurbh]

Hmmm, the server seems to be down. Can't get into any of my pages. Hopefully it'll be back up soon.

[ecurbh]

I don't know if it was recorded, but I'll check on it.

[ecurbh]

Just checked with the hosting company, and they are doing some maintenance on the web servers tonight.

[Overtaxed]

I don't know if it was recorded, but I'll check on it.

Can't you just blow something into the mic? Or must I play Blarney Pilgrim til you puke? :)

[HairOfTheDog]

Did you have thoughts about entmoot? - Or were you just making sure we had not made a plan without telling you?

[Corin Stormhands]

Is this how you sold Hair on the Feadog?

You SOLD Hair? How could you? I mean, she's a part of our family here. How could you be so cruel?

And what is this Feadog anyway? Is it like e-Bay? Is there a return policy? Can you get her back?

What?...Oh....nevermind....
