The Blarney Pilgrim

Well, here I am again with myself. I've noted that keeping time with yourself is not really that hard casue you know exactly when all the pauses and stuff are going to come - very few surprizes.

dude thats freaking nice :O

can u wright down the tabs for me please? (A)

[To2ndMars]

@gunojh

Thanks....

Sorry I can't write down the tabs because I don't have any (and wouldn't know how to use them if I did heh). I play by ear. I would suggest just running a google search or something --- though tabs for this type of music can be hard to find. Good luck!

nice :) what low whistle are you playing? as in what brand?

[To2ndMars]

@TheWhistlingGypsy

Thanks. :-) You've got some great tunes as well.

The low whistle in the vid is a Dixon low D. I think its the best low whistle you can get for under $100 before making the price jump to around $300.

Neat trick. Good ryhthm. You need encouragement to keep trying. I hope you won't mind me saying that the B part is way out of tune. Could it be your low whistle?

[To2ndMars]

You are quite right. My low whistle is terribly out of tune. It is tuneable, but when the tuner is slid all the way in, its rather off (it is suppose to be right - my high D Dixon is about right). So, since I am pretty sure I recorded the low whistle first, there sadly wasn't much I could do about it when I recorded the high D section. But such it is I suppose - I just try to remember by Low D is off by default and tune accordingly.
