I saw this on hornwhistleboard and thought you guys might be interested. The link didn’t go to the exact page when I clicked on it but maybe you can figure it out.
UK members might be interested in this event: http://thamesfestival.org/events/info/1 … hips-opera
It’ll feature some of Roland Humble’s amazing collection, and a Diaphone rescued some years ago by the guy who posted it. Nick was his name.
Hey people’s, I never actually went to this as it was threatening to rain quite hard, but then it turned out it did not rain till the early hours this morning
Here’s a link to a load of Horns going off on the river Thames in London.
And this one has to be the coolest one!!! At Tower bridge, and you can see it closing after the ships/boats had past. Video is quite long so get comfy, sit back and enjoy…no train scares but interesting all the same:D
Oh man… Stinky - did you miss out or what!
Look upon the bright side, at least you didn’t blow up your compressors trying to keep up with a quarter hour of hornblasting
Honestly though, if that wasn’t a verified, bona fide event I would’ve bet that someone had a few ales too many and let loose on a sampling keyboard. It’s all over the shop.
I had to stop watching - after five minutes my dog started howling his head off at all the steam whistles LOL
Mate, I was slightly gutted, I literally decided not to go an hour & half before it started, the wife was even going to come with me along with baby Daisy, but the good old British weather is so un-predictable & could quite easily put the dampers on an event like that, so I decided to sadly stay in and watch X-factor instead :eek: But then thanks to YouTube, I got to see it anyway
Lol at your dog howling, those steam whistles were a bit on the random side!!!
