Who is the whistler??
« on: October 05, 2005, 04:49:48 pm »
He must be stopped!!!!  Every recording I\'ve listened to in recent history has been tarnished by the whistling guy!!  A couple of times on the last Porter\'s recording, it completely drowns out the band.  It was really annoying at moe.down, too.  I understand his excitement for the band but someone has to take the whistle away.  I love to hear the crowd going nuts and I hoot and holler a lot but this guy is just too good at whistling, and at the same whistling sequence,........tweeeet.....tweeeet.....tweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!!!  Its too loud man, you\'re f\'n the tape up.
Piss up a rope!

I\'ve seen this mystery whistler blow artwork off the walls @ Acoustic Cafe!  I believe DerrickW has photographic proof of it happening.  Check the gallery.

i think we\'ve all pleaded for an end to the cacophony... there is little hope methinks...

... there was a time when i thought it couldn\'t get worse than the "yeeeeeaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh" --- boy was i wrong ;)
and what CAN you do, when your world is invaded by a reggaejunkiejew?!?

there was a dark period in my life when I wasn\'t going to a lot of shows.  But when I streamed them and heard the whistles, well, I knew all was right in the world.

Keep whistlin\' you crazy, annoying, freak!  Keep whistlin\'.

I will simply add that you all know how I feel about this.

It must be stopped. 1x -3x a show OK I can deal but prior, during and after each song is too much

I really have a hard time listening to any of the shows I have recorded since Beardslee castle Memorial Day Weekend.

It is like fucking nails on a chalk board.

Can\'t he mix it up a little. maybe a "hell ya" or some nice quiet giant punching ?

...and is he ser???

sometimes i find myself next to the whistler at shows.

he whistles.

i close my eyes.

tight.

i cringe.

i say to myself \'it will be over soon\'.

eventually it is, and i find myself saying \'what?\' a lot in the conversations i have with people the rest of the night.

what?

The man is a legend and rightfully so.  I think it is great that he gets so excited he cannot contain his "Yeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh\'s" and his whistles(or his sweat for that matter).  Long live that sexy beast whomever he may be.

Or better yet he mentioned on the board that he will be viewing shows in front of SAVE. I say we just have dobz crank the Bass AMP onstage and drown it out. That way everybody wins. More Ron and Less whistler. :)

I mainly have a problem with it when it passes my pain threshold.... You are not the first person to start a thread on this topic... I think we are stuck with the mysterious whistler.
