yeah um its not cool to just be like "I heard it means you keep the song going and i wanted to do that"
there are all types of whistle carriers all of which are designated some may be one for a certain faimly or a tribe and others recieve their whistles because they are a wounded vet or because they sun dance.
as far as the whole thing you said about being from the north east. as far as i know they would not have whistles here if it where not for the more western tribes. so to say i don't know how you do it wont fly. because thats where it came from.
no one is trying to rip you apart just trying to prevent you from alot of embarrasment.
when bear dancer said bring your wallet. haha that means you better be willing to give that drum and the mc everything you got. most area's have a designated whistle carrier and if you are a visiting whistle carrier you need to inform both the mc and the whistle carrier of that area if you intend on blowing your whistle othewise you WILL be called on it and you will have to pay
my suggestion is don't worry bout it and just don't make one you will be safer
