Hi i am new and i want to ask a Whistle Question

Post Sun Dec 11, 2005 9:17 pm

Hello i am from Northern Ireland and i love the Fairytale Of New York which should get No.1 this xmas


I am new here and i hope to make loads of friends here and also to meet great people here.


I have a Question. I play the tinwhistle at home and i was wondering can u play the tinwhistle notes of FONY on a standard 'D' tinwhistle or do u have to have a different tinwhistle. i would love to play it.

P.S. THE POGUES FOR XMAS NO.1 WESTLIFE SUCK I HATE THEM
