For those of you who want/need another outlet to chat about bagpipes, a little discord server (think IRC chat if you are not familiar) has been started. It has a channel for uilleann pipes specifically along with a number of GHB/band/piping sections as well.

- Tell us something.: I'm a fiddler and, latterly, a fluter. I love the flute. I wish I'd always played it. I love the whistle as well. I'm blessed in having really lovely instruments for all of my musical interests.

- Tell us something.: If you flush your toilet 7 times whilst lilting "The Bucks of Oranmore", an apparition of one of the great pipers of old will appear in the mirror, you will be blessed with good reeds, but cursed with bad bags and bellows.

Awesome, I see some familiars there. 
We musicians are enemies by disposition, so treat every musician you happen to meet, accordingly.
