Scottish Site with resident bagpipe player

[Otter Spotter]

Who likes the Scottish Bagpipe ? I don’t mind when they are played in a band but for some reason there is a very loud idiot on the campsite who has decided to regal the whole site with his out of tune practising. Is this fair

 

[mike mcglynn]

No it certainly isn’t tell him to bog off

When in Scotland ......I can't stand the noise apart from massed pipes in Scotland (when I'm in England)

 

[jessthedog]

Are you sure its the bagpipes and not just the sound of the Scots moaning?

Yes , I love the bagpipes

If you don’t like the Scottish themes then don’t come.

Did you know, they are made from four pig skins, or was it from pig....

 

[jessthedog]

Yes , I love the bagpipes

I would rather eat my own kidney

 

[Byron]

If i was you i would try to steer away from Scotland and the piping Jocks

 

[Jimbohorlicks]

When the piper plays and has his hat out for cash, he is in fact just reminding you that if you don't contribute, he will play even more.

I love the Scottish themes, but his interpretation is very poor. I play Northumbrian Pipes so I know bum notes when I hear them.
my Scottish neighbour on the next pitch was apologising for him and threatened to break his reeds.

 

[Gellyneck]

This piper has been on the site for ages and nobody's ever complained!.

 

[DigglyDog]

They say the most beautiful sound in the world is that of bagpipes receding in the distance...

In battle.

 

[jessthedog]

Whats the difference between a bagpipe and an onion?
No one cry’s when you cut up a bagpipe

My favourite instrument is a piano accordion, I had an old one gifted to me and love to play it one day.

Lovely instrument to listen too but bl**dy difficult to play well.

When playing Scottish traditional music I often accompany an accordionist with my guitar and they get upset when I refer to it as a machine.

I like what Billy Connolly said the definition of a gentleman is someone who can play the bagpipes but doesn't.

Have you heard him play I would love to be able to do that.

 

[34127]

Yes, he is a good musician, but why choose the banjo

 

[Otter Spotter]

Yes, he is a good musician, but why choose the banjo

Have you tried singing whilst playing the pipes

 

[34127]

Have you tried singing whilst playing the pipes

It would improve my singing

I was on the banks of Loch Ness about 30 years ago just as the sun was rising. There was a mist over the loch and there was a castle in the distance on the other side from where the most amazing bagpipe music was emanating from.

It was one of my life’s favourite moments.

 

[pappajohn]

The modern way to play the pipes.

 

[bigwood]

My wife’s sisters ex in Australia took his pipes to a camp site in the bush outback to practice. The rest of the site probably had consumed too much 4X to care. He is from my part of West Yorkshire so,why the pipes.
He has re invented hime self since his divorce getting re married at Gretna first. His kids think he is as mad as a box of frogs. I think he is great only because there is new daft trick every time we go there.

 

[jockaneezer]

I used to have a school holiday job at Gretna Green, the Piper was always complaining about the foreign coins in his collecting tin, but never offered me them !
I think the German word for bagpipes, Dudelsack has a certain charm to it ?

 

[glenn2926]

I’ve worked at a few events where the Red Hot Chilli Pipers were playing. Amazing sound.
