I need to get back to piping more than I have been. Life has been so full of various forms of work, a new baby (now one year old), and other random things that piping has just not been as prominent in my life. Having just played for my first graveside service in a while two weeks ago, I really feel like this drought needs to be at an end. It was wonderful to strike up and play for other people!
So, if you have an event for which you think bagpipes might be cool - give me a ring/email!
My old Gibson's are now equipped with a brand new Bannatyne hybrid bag (part synthetic, part hide) and a drone and chanter moisture control system that really rocks. No more moisture issues for me! I have also noticed a significant increase in playing comfort. So, while I haven't had time to try this - I'm betting that I could play for an hour or more straight!
That still wouldn't make me half as cool as this guy...
