That is because Bagpipes are not a musical instrument, but a weapon of war!

Cool links, Mad Lemmy! thanks!
But Flame-throwing drones - totally bad ass!  And a competent piper to boot.

I totally agree!.

At least they should have stood at the back so as not to obstruct the view!!   I would rather see "Totty in Stockings" than "Men in Skirts"  :)

Really enjoyed the Red Hot Chilli Pipers.

They're even better live.

They performed in the street outside the record shop my son works in.

I really liked them also. Not your father's pipe band. Twenty years since I was last in Scotland. Much has changed.
