What do you drink between playing, and does Guinness clog up the windway?
Guinness is my drink of choice. But if it’s getting in the windway, that’s just plain carelessness, a waste, and thus alcohol abuse. 
I’m a Murphy’s man myself, I am not ashamed to say.
Coffee, with a splash of Emmett’s Irish Cream, please.
I’ll second bloomfield. Although, when it’s really, really cold outside, I have been known to nip a little Apricot Brandy. I try not to drool any into my whistles! 
I think what I meant to say was “what do you drink between tunes?” when practicing or playing in a session, and what d’you avoid to prevent the windway clogging!
I’d guess the various colas are to be avoided (sweet and sticky?), and was thinking that wooden whistles might be sensitive to having ‘the fumes’ breathed into 'em!
Water! Let’s hear three cheers for a glass of regular ol’ ice water! YEAH!
(ducks and runs…)

(A little soap trick to the windway can help with clogging in general with some whistles. I’m sure someone else can explain it better than I could though.)
A drop of Islay Malt…mmm

Do you know what fish DO in that stuff?!
BEER. As long as it comes out of a bottle or a tap and isn’t too funky or too watery, I’ll drink it.
have you any more water left there sara? 
sure i could have a beer, but i know i’ll get too fond of it and want it every day 
it’s the same with cd’s. i just know if i buy a cd, i want them all 
that’s why i only copie from librarys 
i thank god i don’t have this with women :roll:
I’m a fan of Lagavulin 16, it’s great for when you feel a head cold coming on. Completely cleans out your sinuses and puts hair on your chest, admittedly a drawback if you’re female but lovely stuff all the same.
I like lagavulin but my bank account doesn’t so I tend to stick with black and tans (guinness on bass) or black and blues (guinness on harp’s)
Scott
Bushmills or a bit of Canadian Mist for me.
Bloomers!
I am utterly disappointed in you! And I had you down for an international man of mystery and discriminating judgement!
It’s for political reasons, of course. Guiness sold out to the English and the International Brewing Establishment. I keep the home fire burning, you see.
Yes, I myself am conflicted in supporting the Guinness family as I do; although it’s the flavor that grabs me, one could say that they are the DeBeers of the beers.
Well, OK, reasonable scrutiny of that analogy reveals its inutility, but just work with me, here. I have no problem with being blatantly ridiculous. I think you all know that.
And, who knows? Perhaps they are the beers of deBeers, too.
Touché. I wouldn’t be surprised. Oligarchy is an incestuous way of life.
Jameson’s. . .doesn’t clog, and the sound is sweeter with a touch of it on my breath.
