[MrPeacesells11]

[sergeantfan]

I'm a Fifer too! In the Kingdom of Fife in Scotland! Hahaha

[avacuppa]

That was so good! Letterman tried to make a bit of fun but Steve Carrel was up to it. He good on that Fife, and am happy he joined the British side. Figures the Brits. would be better at the history side of things. :) But am impressed with this actor, is more to him than meets the eye. I enjoy Fife and Drum.

[sammisutra1978]

Who doesn't love Steve Carell? - He is smart, funny, and HOT!

[Bonacers]

Played in a fife and drum unit for over 10 years in Connectcut...Loved this!!

[1desiretaco]

The Omniheat commercial with the Asains (I don't know what the language is) The girl in the yellow coat is looking "hard" at the camera

[lavellove1]

Steve Carell is the funniest man alive!

[SalieriFoe]

FABULOUS! (And the video quality is amazing, even on full screen)

[reedvid]

[captainhennessey]

@reedvid so hes the one who knew so much about Ben Franklin

[veronicachic]

hes just like michael scott tehe

[schatzie1030]

What a nice surprise to see the fife being played on a national talk show! Thank you Steve Carell for having the courage to do it. Fifers everywhere were delighted, I'm sure.

[dreamsquare123]

@schatzie1030 haha, virgins

[MrPaulddrumboy]

its cool that my favorite comidian was a fellow reenactor too!!!

[MrPaulddrumboy]

i was in the carlise and concord minute men ...that is so cool my favorite comidian is a fellow reeactor too.!!!!

[Commonwealth96]

Was Steve Carell apart of the Lexington re-enactment?

[TessieTee]

@Commonwealth96 He was born in Concord, and raised in Acton, so I wouldn't be surprised.

[evacrowley]

@Commonwealth96 He was part of the Acton Minutemen. I am also a re-enactor with the Acton Minutemen. Have never met him but know his Dad!

[PaolaNavarro21]

Steve Carell is WAYY hotter then Brad Pitt,sory brad pitt lovers but thats my OPINION!

[RingosGirl202]

He is playing a song called "7 Stars" by the way. (I'm a drummer in a fife and drum corps.)  Very cool, I like him about a million times more than I already did :)

[upkilt]

@RingosGirl202 More accurately, it's a "tune" named Moon and the Seven Stars and is originally an English Morris Dance tune. (Celtic/Early music historian and musician).

[sean100main]

Steve's Dad is Still a member of the Acton Minutemen, As am I. We could use another good fifer, I wonder if he'd consider coming back now that he is no longer doing "the Office".

[LadyBarbossa]

@sean100main Bloody hell, I hope so! He's a hell of a Fifer! Need to entice him back into the hobby! 10th Regiment.. oh, dear Lord, now I would LOVE to talk about the 10th Regt and Rev War with him!

~Lady B

[ALLNEWSUNNY]

[sfife5]

my last name is fife so i win.

[jdmayo83]

I play the fife as well. I've been playing for about 4 years. I am a civil war reenactor.

[LitterboxStudios]

YES! I'm in the 10th. I play drums. My dad carries a musket, and my brother's in it too.

We now know why Steve's so successful. He started in the 10th! Not a bad rendition of The Moon and Seven Stars either...

[pvtsam1775]

@LitterboxStudios are you a member of Lee company?

[LitterboxStudios]

@pvtsam1775 and proud :)

[LadyBarbossa]

@LitterboxStudios Lee's Company? Dragoon Legion under Henry Lee or another unit under Charles or some other Lee? I'm curious.

~Lady B

[ColonelTrainwreck]

@LitterboxStudios So is my old history teacher, Mr. Ziniti. ME and him would talk about our 'war' memories. (I am a Civil War re-enactor)

[LadyBarbossa]

@LitterboxStudios LOL... Huzzah! Good things happen when you are a Rev War reenactor. ;) BTW, would love to chat with some folks in the 10th regiment. Curious to know for sure, which companies of the 10th Regiment of Foote fought in the Battle of Camden in South Carolina. Oh, would be nice to have Steve Carell in for that battle! He'd enjoy a fine battle on the actual site.

~Lady B

[SomeGuyDrumming]

Itd be awesome to see him show up at DRAM next year haha

[Bliggida]

Reminds me of Ron Burgundy, "I really can't... I'm not prepared" as he brings the flute pieces out of his jacket.

[pvtsam1775]

we need to get this guy back in the 10th!

[DBMalone]

@pvtsam1775

I was a member ot the 10th (Colonel's company), but left two years before he joined to go in the Navy. Paul O says the regimental records show him serving in the Grenadier Company in 1978 as a fifer.  Apparently, he was with the Acton Minutemen before that.

[lziniti]

My brother is a member of His Majesty's Tenth Regiment of Foot!

[ColonelTrainwreck]

@lziniti Would this brother of yours be named Charles?

[lziniti]

@ColonelTrainwreck : Why yes, it is.

[ColonelTrainwreck]

@lziniti I knew It. I had him as a techer 2 years ago.

[ColonialFifer]

I always knew he was my favorite comedic actor for a reason.

[Gleam21]

ahhaha
