dannybuoy Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 Ah, love the NZ accent. http://youtu.be/hFPEpUKd5OY Quote
Dad3353 Posted August 28, 2014 Posted August 28, 2014 That's something that's always intrigued me. What would the fellow sound like if he actually wanted to say "Piddle"..? If the two words sound the same, how (excepting context...) would one know which was which..? If one hears "I want a piddle.", is the bloke after an effect or a wee..? Maybe a question for the 'Random Thoughts' thread... [size=4] [/size] Quote
bakerster135 Posted August 28, 2014 Posted August 28, 2014 I like listening to the demo without watching it, and pretending it's Jemaine from Flight of the Conchords talking ... Quote
Kirky Posted August 28, 2014 Posted August 28, 2014 If he wanted to say "piddle" he'd probably say "puddle". We Kiwis [i]really[/i] don't do vowels very well. For us "fish and chips" is "fush and chups". For an Australian it would be "feesh and cheeps". Quote

dannybuoy Posted August 28, 2014 Author Posted August 28, 2014 But, back to the pedal - it seems kinda cool, looking forward to hearing some more demos of it. Register on the Red Witch forums (http://www.redwitchpedals.com/) and there's one up for grabs, just have to enter why you should win one! Quote
basshead56 Posted August 28, 2014 Posted August 28, 2014 At least it wasn't the Southland version of Kiwi (the only real unique kiwi accent) - everything with an R gets four extra R's - eg "You Durrty Flurrt in yourr Purrple worrk shurrt" - it's brilliant! It's like a load of Irish and Scots on valium, so no different from home then... Every day down here is another adventure Quote
