Ok.. honestly... what's the deal?
i've never used one at a party... i've seen them.. well.. more like heard them
do DJ's apreciate that constant whistle blowing??? do the partiers apreciate it?????
cuz for the love of god i don't get it! .....
...
no offence to the many fine parties who blow whistles.. but... jeeeeeezus... WHY!?
thank you.. :)
(quik note: it's not that i haven' theard SOME whistle blowing that was well timed enoug to fit in, but mostly.. no.. and wouldn't that breath be better spent dancing harder!!! lol)

One could ask the same question as to y i would wear a stuffed Raichu pokemon backpak to parties.
It's all in the good name of fun i say, and a form of expression. Always fun to hear people adding a little whistle tune in between beats, some can be pretty good at it. Or when u hear different people on opposite sides of the room trading off whistles calls.
Over excessive whistling can get anyoing...just like anything else in excess.
But if blowing a little whistle makes someone happy, then hey if your having a good time doing that, then that's all that matters :)

What if holding my fists at arm's length and doing a quadruple-lariat in the middle of a crowded dance-floor made *me* happy, even though it knocks half a dozen people senseless? Would that be OK?
People go to raves for, among other things, the music. If I go to a party where, say, DJ X was headlining, I wanna hear DJ X, not DJ X vs That Tone-Deaf Retard With The Whistle. In any case, whistles are fairly simple instruments. The pitch goes up with volume, meaning the tonal range isn't all that great, so no matter how much skill goes into the whistleblowing, it'll still sound shit - shit enough to make me wanna punch the whistle into the whistleblower's cranial cavity.
[closes his eyes and takes a deep breath]
I think I'm done now. This has been bothering me since the time I heard That Tone-Deaf Retard With The Whistle do a back-to-back set with Scott Brown.

i'm jost so fantastically happy that i'm not the only one
cripes!
i concur, i go to hear the DJ, NOT some blood whistle *shakes his fist*
wear your raichu backpack all you want, that's fan-bloody-tastic
it doesn't infringe on my enjoyment of the music i'm there to listen to
i mean... it'll start with whistles.. but where will it end!?
soon we'll have marching bands walkin around raves bellowing all kindsa crazy shit, but hey y'know, it makes them happy, and is their form of expression to "compliment" the music....
*grumbles n just shakes his fist*
i love the scene, i love.. well.. most of the ppl ;)
and i'm all about expression, but IMHO... whistles n such don't particularily ADD to what the DJ is doing, as much as add shrill annoying bursts at any given moment that are terribly frustrating
heh.. anyhoo
i don't actually get as worked up as i may seem here about it
but yeah... just a pet peeve i guess

Whistles definitely bother me, funny..I thought I was the only one...heh... Especially when you have a determined whistle blower standing directly next to you and happen to be blowing that whistle right in your ear. I can remember being at so many parties and just wishing the whistle blowers would choak on them as i turn and flash them a half ass agravated smile hoping they would get the point...nothing against the people that blow whistles..but if you could find a lower pitched object to blow like maybe a cazoo or something. That is if you really can't bring yourself to part with the little weird shaped object shoved in your mouth while you dance. Just please lose the whistles!!! |

Whistles rock
in a big rave
they just add emphasis not the overpowering ness they do at a small party

OliGhalebi: Even at a big rave, whistles still have a really annoying effect for everyone within 10 metres of the whistleblower. If you think about it, having just a dozen or so whistleblowers in even a massive arena can get really irritating for a whole lot of other ravers, considering whistleblowers generally tend to congregate (and therefore overlap their spheres of crappiness) near the DJ stage where, incidentally, they have the most devastating effect on the sonic quality of the set, both by diluting the music and bugging the crap out of the DJ.
Hixxy_is_my_god2k2: To do a quadruple lariat, first stand up holding your fists out to the side at arm's length. Then spin as fast as you can, doing one revolution per lariat, therefore a quadruple is 4 revolutions.
It's a really good way to clear yourself some dancefloor space (or convince everyone that your drugs are really good)

Don't dream it's over

I've never really paid attention to those blowers, but i have done while the dj is playing that whistle song, it is alright for that but i dunno bout other tracks! 
If you love it, let it go, if it comes back it was ment to be, if it doesn't it wasn't. |
| Oli G |
One thing i forgot to add
i dont like people trying to blow whistles during the tune
ur always out of time
whistles should be kept for breakdowns :D
