They definately won’t let me whistle on the bus!

I did when I (briefly) had Susatos in the car. You might think about a different whistle.

Now I’ve got an Oak, Clare, Feadog/Oak hybrid, and a Walton’s C. The Clare is an especially nice car whistle, because it’s not that loud, plus the sound is not that bright. The Oak is brighter, and the Feadog louder. The Walton’s is a pretty loud whistle for the car; too bad it’s so damn nice.

What about the police? They might pull you over thinking that you’re toking on a big ole crack stem!

Can’t say the 'veg condones playing ANY misical struments in automobiles.

But, certain vegetables have been known to practice harp while driving freeways. Relaxing and not nearly as dangerous as whiskles. Only one hand needed, and no auto-lobotomy danger.

Probably still illegal.

Which is why i’ve never done it. honest. :devil:

Geez, my 22-string even wouldn’t fit between me and the steering wheel. :laughing: (You have to consider your audience when using words like harp or dulcimer.)

I first got the idea of playing the whistle in the car from hearing my sister-in-law talking about driving behind my brother and saying how he was getting into his harp playing (he’s strictly a blues guy, so no confusion there) while stuck in a traffic jam on I-91 in Hartford.

I meant (a diatonic) one of these…

Maybe for my next animated avatar I do a “DON’T PLAY AND DRIVE” public service message.

:roll: Well.. the last time I checked we are wasting 40 Billion per year on “bad cop, no donut syndrome”. Depending which agency, and which cop it is… they could be pulling one over to make a sale. Of course.. im saying this from the the crank capitol of Colorado.
