What about the Three Tenors doing doing all that warbling at the end of O Sole Mio. It was done in fun and because they could do it and it went down a storm. Why can't we do the same thing on our pipes if we want to for fun and mischief to get laughter and response from our listeners?which is probably the main thing we are trying to do in playing in public (you could do it in a forest as well even if no one is listening). Something like jazz compared to classical playing.
