Subject: RE: PTH July Installment From: smallpiper Date: 09 Jul 03 - 03:45 AM Hello Martabees - glad you are enjoying our little corner of this alternative universe. Its fun and we like it! It can get a little confusing in 'ere. PTH play gigs which are advertised and often discussed in these threads and the rest of the time we are talking about sessions or just plain old fashioned utter rubbish. Mostly it is the later. Oh and incedentaly I've heard a roooomor that our vertuoso bum flute player has started taking steroids so that he can hit those high notes better. Wonder what he was mostly playing last night? KJ? |

Subject: RE: PTH July Installment From: marthabees Date: 08 Jul 03 - 09:55 PM Gotta say, ladies and gents, that I have been totally confused and delightfully so as I - a PTH newby from the US - tried to figure out what this was all about. Thanks for the lovely laughs. And I REALLY enjoyed the dialects I could hear in your postings. And I REALLY wish I could have attended the playing. Did I get that right.... this was about a performance of some kind? You are all such a riot! Can I tune in for the August 'event' and be just as enthralled?? Thanks loads, Martha in Tallahassee - that's Florida -that's the US, where...lucky Floridians get to suffer with the Bush Boys...a governor AND a presidents. cough cough cough.... |

Subject: RE: PTH July Installment From: smallpiper Date: 08 Jul 03 - 05:16 PM Why thank you honey (but I'm not worried). Dicky is an excellent piper we play different types of music so comparisons are futile (they are anyway)and I know that I am a competent piper, excellence will take a while longer (but I'm going to work at it and keep working at it untill old age and senility stops me - yes that would be about two months away then you sarky buggers!). |

Subject: RE: PTH July Installment From: sweetfire Date: 08 Jul 03 - 01:39 PM Yeah does anybody know who that guy was...? He was really good. But don't worry SP, you still are fav. piper!!! |
|
Subject: RE: PTH July Installment From: ossonflags Date: 08 Jul 03 - 12:21 PM Yes sweetfire, he was at the festival but he wasnt the magic piper that enthraled us in the early hours of that sunday morn.Norreen.Dicky can usually be found in the company of John the harp and Chrissie, busking around the Beverley. I see that unspeakable bounder zoomercrap1.5% has made an appearance again -dont encourage him Norreen!!!!! |

Subject: RE: PTH July Installment From: sweetfire Date: 08 Jul 03 - 11:56 AM Congratulations Noreen!! haha |

Subject: RE: PTH July Installment From: Noreen Date: 08 Jul 03 - 09:55 AM Roquefort, perchance? (Why, sp?) |
|
Subject: RE: PTH July Installment From: smallpiper Date: 08 Jul 03 - 09:48 AM A slice of cheese seems to be the prize of the moment Noreen |
|
Subject: RE: PTH July Installment From: Noreen Date: 08 Jul 03 - 09:45 AM If you want me to go on arguing, you'll have to pay for another five minutes. (Had to get the 100th post! What's the prize?) |
|
Subject: RE: PTH July Installment From: Noreen Date: 08 Jul 03 - 09:40 AM Oaklet's free, but he's a little bit concilliatory. Try John from Hull. |

|
Subject: RE: PTH July Installment From: Noreen Date: 08 Jul 03 - 07:12 AM Is he the chap who was at Beverley and played in the food tent at 5am...?? He was very good :0) |
|
Subject: RE: PTH July Installment From: sweetfire Date: 08 Jul 03 - 07:00 AM Mmmmm...so you wouldn't want those pipes then John?? lol He seemed familiar...was he at Bev folk fess Osson...? |
|
Subject: RE: PTH July Installment From: smallpiper Date: 08 Jul 03 - 06:27 AM Yes SF they were and as such require a hell of a lot more maintenance and cost twice as much they are also total bastards to play. |
|
Subject: RE: PTH July Installment From: GUEST,ossonflags Date: 08 Jul 03 - 05:42 AM Sweetfire,the other guy is called Dickie and the pipes he was playing are an Irish instrument called uillean pipes - pronounced uillean - sometimes known as union pipes after the "union" of sound they make. |
|
Subject: RE: PTH July Installment From: sweetfire Date: 08 Jul 03 - 05:34 AM they where bigger than yours.....hehehe |
|
Subject: RE: PTH July Installment From: smallpiper Date: 08 Jul 03 - 05:28 AM Uillean or Irish pipes - they consist of a chanter (wot he plays the tunes on) three drones (self explainatory) and three regulators (the things with all the keys on them)which he can play cords on or single notes that in concert with the drones make cords and can be used to provide a harmonic accompaniement. (Oops spelling). Here endeth the lesson sf. |
|
Subject: RE: PTH July Installment From: sweetfire Date: 08 Jul 03 - 05:19 AM SP - what are the pipes called that the other guy played...? |

Maybe they moved about a lot on stage and you lost count? See you at the Sun this afternoon peeps. |
|
Subject: RE: PTH July Installment From: smallpiper Date: 06 Jul 03 - 05:36 AM so were the other two (but that goes without saying). Pete's sesion this arta anyone? |

|
Subject: RE: PTH July Installment From: Les from Hull Date: 05 Jul 03 - 03:38 PM I will of course be attending Peter's world famous Sun Sesh, but sadly will be without the Fragrant One. She is taking the day off to watch Wombledon (it's some kind of balls contest, she informs me). |

Subject: RE: PTH July Installment From: GUEST,KJ Date: 05 Jul 03 - 01:19 PM Some people have allergic reactions to latex SF. They grow horrible hairy hands & howl at the moon. |
|
Subject: RE: PTH July Installment From: sweetfire Date: 05 Jul 03 - 12:34 PM I'm lost...why are they latex free??? What's the advantage? (if there is one that is ) |
|
Subject: RE: PTH July Installment From: GUEST,KJ Date: 05 Jul 03 - 08:10 AM I have been reliably informed that latex-free is far more comfortable & sensitive, that may be why he wants three tools! |
|
Subject: RE: PTH July Installment From: Noreen Date: 05 Jul 03 - 07:41 AM Actually Karen I thought it was your latex-free tools that he wanted three of... |
|
Subject: RE: PTH July Installment From: GUEST,KJ Date: 05 Jul 03 - 07:06 AM I had a friend called ferret face because he looked like a ferret! I agree SP hernias are not a thing to boast about I don't know why Pete insists on pursuing this silliness! |
