Which of his drones are tuned to the 4th? The bari, the bass, or both? I cannot tell......

And one who has worked really hard to get that good and to keep on getting better. I learned a lot about how to practice from him.

Meeting guys like these does open up your horizons nicely.PadraigB wrote:A classy piper with plenty of imagination in his playing.

Apparently, it was entirely unintentional, just a happy accident that worked out well. It adds a unique tone to his piping.carel wrote:ennischanter wrote:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wcwY2yfCNRU
