Highland pipers are going to love that! Now they'll carry the stigma of being "non-uilleann." If Dale was scared of pipes before, now he should be petrified now.
Excellent! Now to drag my bud with the dead goat over for a visit.

Tell us something.: Very much enjoy all flutes, bagpipes and whistles. I'm an older player; however, an active learner. I take current lessons from an Irish Flute tutor, a Boehm Flute tutor and a Highland Bagpipe tutor. I'm a great believer in lessons and without the assistance of a tutor, I find that I would be repeating the same mistakes over and over again, making me proficient in poor music.
I think this is great!!! I play GHB, Scottish Small Pipes as well as learning to play the Union Pipes (Uilleann Pipes). The idea of a "non Uilleann" site is cool from the standpoint that it is another opporunity for pipers to get to know one another and share information. Way to go Dale/ Joseph!!!
By the way, GHB ,SSP, NSP were all mentioned. How about kozy, duda, gudatsviri, parakapzuk, shabur, etc? Honestly, I didn't make up any of the above, they all do exist.

Whatever variety of bagpipe is AOK with me... hence the name of this forum. Go on, knock yourselves out.

Just wait 'till someone starts talking about bagwhistles. Then there'll be trouble!

Maybe, but at least people (not talking about our moderator) won't be complaining about other pipes being discussed. That was getting very tiresome. Thanks, Dale and JES.
Oh, now I suppose if Uilleann pipes are mentioned in this forum the same thing will happen . Dang!
