Three cannon shots

For a live audio play at Bielefeld University (a student's drama group) we needed three cool cannon shots. The audio play / reading happened in December 2013. It was a short version of Jules Verne's "20.000 leagues under the sea". It went very well. A non-commercial event. Just for fun.

For these three 'canon shots' I used: 93741 by Omar Alvarado. (Omar himself used free sounds, as well; check out his description page: http://www.freesound.org/people/Omar%20Alvarado/sounds/93741/)

If you use this sound, please credit Omar Alvarado.

Many thanks for this perfect sound of three cannon shots. I used it in my animated series about Bach's life and hopefully you'll enjoy what I did with it. Credits in the end titles and link in the video description of course.

Thank you for this lovely sound. I’ve used it here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DQzfFR17LuA) in a lore announcement video for my roleplaying server. You’ve been credited in the description. Keep up the great work!

Coincidentially -- plan to use this this in a show as part of another Verne story -- the firing of the Columbiad in From the Earth to the Moon.
