Yes, everyone does. Iād post pictures but the Rocky Mountain Boys would come after me. ![]()
I do. I look a whole lot more ridiculus when I play Pipes though (talking GHBs here) my face is all contorted and I look like a freak I donāt have any pics up on the computer. I also look ridiculus playing the third octave on Bassoon according to the Bass Clainet player in my school band I look all red and ugly and fat alright it was a lot funnier if you were there. ![]()
Some of us look ridiculous playing anything. LOL!.. I used to find an āinterestingā photo of me on the front page of whatever local paper, with the strangest expression on my face⦠happened several times⦠Iāve just decided that itās life⦠and Iām usually funny lookinā. 8^)
I practice in front of a mirror just to make sure I look cool. If you throw in some extremely painful looks during a slow air, people will comment on how passionate you are about your music! ![]()
This lad looks as if he plays a wicked whistle. You just know from looking at him that his tunes have that jaunty expression to them. Blut, alas, it looks as if heās playing a WALTON? Or could it be a Feadog?

I take it youāve never seen Andrea Corrs⦠![]()
Is he really playing āwrong hand 'roundā or was the picture flopped?
But ājauntyā is right, whatever the whistle.
M
Now now do you have a problem with āwrong hand 'roundā ![]()
NO. I look ridiculous all the time.
All in the mindā¦especially when sharing a stage with a bari saxophone when even my Copeland Low D is āsmall beerā!
Trisha
Never me!
I saw Seamus Egan in concert once, playing flute ānormallyā (left hand closest to the face) and a low whistle āwrong hand 'round.ā
Iām afraid my brain would short-circuit if I tried that. ![]()
M
I donāt care what hands I use as well as it works well and sounds goodā¦
Unless you practice before a mirror (like that skinny chick, I bet), it typically looks like one is sucking on a lemon.
No matter how you look at it, I believe his right hand (or wrong hand) is actually on top.
Will OāBan
Oh, you, too?
Ennis Traveler, let me be the first to tell you that you donāt look ridiculous. You look like a whistler.
Not a bad photo at all.
I think itās just that we donāt look at ourselves so very often, especially not when weāre doing something as intimate and revealing as playing whistle. (At least I donāt.)
For contrast, just have someone take a picture of you eating. Thatās always worse. Iāve heard no one is allowed to photograph the queen eating.
Jennie
Oh. Thatās good. Nooneās allowed to photograph me eating either. They just donāt get punished for it.
Probably just as wellā¦
Would you want to open your morning paper only to see such a photographā¦please. ![]()
Slan,

-Paul had it right: Andrea Corr looks fetching rather than ridiculous when playing whistle, as she does doing nearly anything imaginable in my sedate, limited, non-scandalous and pc imagination. ![]()
