You should do a little jig outside near the parade and tape it.

i lost my appreciation for bagpipes when a piper played the postlude at an indoor wedding.
bagpipes indoors!? i think they may have been trying to kill off the elder generation to earn an early inheritance.

horrible, nasty sound. On a pentatonic scale too, which means that like the harmonica, you can't really play a bum note. This of course leads to any crusty idiot who can learn to blow into a stick deciding its his calling and busking heedorum-hoderum, hurdy gurdy aural cancer all over the country.
erses.

you don't hear them very often down here. there's one bloke on waterloo bridge all the time, but he's the only one i see regularly.
i think they sound great. skt once took me to a rad warehouse party in wapping where a mate of his played them along with a house dj and it was superb.

i truly love the sound of a bagged pipe.
much like fireworks and fountains- they are a superfoulus luxury to the senses that just make me feel good.

(Jun 24 07, 21:20)heh, I almost played the soprano saxophone just for a change once, but (there's a long story as to why I couldn't play it eventually) I stuck with my alto sax instead.
They're all okay in moderation.

I love the mechanics behind the instrument itself.
But I wouldn't be able to take hours of the sound.

They've finished now. To be honest, it was pretty powerful. It's local communities having fun competing, which is great stuff. One might want to say at least it keeps them off the street, but actually all the bands marched along Harbour Road in the end..
