Henry_17 Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Foxy, Hands down bagpipes for me. Never been an occasion when i have found them pleasent, while on the other hand the Brad Pitt yodelling sketch did entertain me.Henry Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/50674-a-simple-question-you-decide/#findComment-793086 Share on other sites More sharing options...
uncleglen Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Bagpipes for me- I have tried to understand them but as a person who has dabbled with musical instruments for years they are unfathomable. Yodeling has (did have) a practical purpose in communication and takes great voice control - I may be biased as I have Austrian blood Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/50674-a-simple-question-you-decide/#findComment-793091 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Applespider Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Yodelling.I can listen to a pipe band longer than I can a yodeller.However, I suspect I'd find both equally irritating if there was a learner within any vicinity of me... then again, any musical instrument can be excruciating to the ears in close proximity (i.e. the poor piano being abused in the flat below even now) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/50674-a-simple-question-you-decide/#findComment-793096 Share on other sites More sharing options...

numbers Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 Yodelling is exceptionally more irritating than bagpipes will ever be.Mind you if your only experience of bagpipes is an unaccompanied, out of practice and out of tune piper trying to make a quick buck at a tourist spot then I can see why you'd dislike them.Yodelling is right up there, along with Gregorian chanting and tubular bells. A frightful dirge. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/50674-a-simple-question-you-decide/#findComment-793685 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sue Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 Yodelling, by a million miles. I can't bear it.But then I'm half Scottish so I guess the pipes are in my blood :) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/50674-a-simple-question-you-decide/#findComment-793687 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Poste's Child Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 Is this one of those unanswerable baboon vs badger questions? Yodelling is insane and I couldn't bear more than a few seconds of it, whereas I find bagpipes strangely stirring.

Seabag Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 What's the one where they whistle and chant/holler ?That's pretty wearing, as is hand bell ringing Not sheep dog trials btw Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/50674-a-simple-question-you-decide/#findComment-794051 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Poste's Child Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Mind you, I find many things annoying. If I were shut in a room with only a TV showing this week's Strictly I wouldn't like to be held accountable for my actions.
