  • more!!!

  • @tonybones5

    I really wish I could get more. The only way it might done now is to find where it is in TN being used as a Hotel, rent a room, and hope they still fire up the Calliope.

  • I gotta weigh in on this. This lady is the best Calliope player I ever heard. She has three nice sets organized, and she avoids what I call "the dodo bird" accompaniment in the left hand and plays real harmony. This particular set has some nice diminished 7ths and augmented 6ths (I think). She varries the tempo from piece to piece which makes it interesting. And the glissando at the end and the nice cadence is fantastic! The sight of the pipes during the glissando is really neat!

    I agree with you 100%. She's the best we heard of any of the others on our 12 trips.

    I had a Music company contact me. They were interested in getting her to help them make some Calliope music. She couldn't be found any where.

    Maybe she checks in here once in awhile.

    Or, maybe she already works for another company that wants to keep her a secret. 8:)

    Check back on some of the comments. All is well. It was a contest between the 2 boats. The voice you heard was from the other player. They were ribbing each other. She did win the contest.

  • Candle Cove pasta brought me here. I had no idea what calliope meant until now. Makes the pasta even creepier. This was still cool noneoftheless.

  • reminds me of the candle cove

  • she can play this song " waiting for the robert e lee" fast!

  • This makes me want to light up a couple of blunts and listen to this for hours on end.

  • This makes me want to write for the calliope!

  • VernianProcess, Your right it seems like there's always at least one in every

    crowd.

  • the calliope has go to be the most bad-ass instrument of all time
