Re: Southern California Tionol 2010

Joseph,

That's the best excuse for missing the tionól I've ever seen :D
Congrats to you and the missus, hope all are doing well.

All the best,

OK, it's getting down to the wire--the "at the door" registration for the SoCal Tionól is $150, so get those registrations in by November 1st--that's one week from today!

Yes, the whiskey goes without saying :D

OK LAST CALL FOR EARLY REGISTRATION! GET THEM POSTMARKED BY OCTOBER 15, OR THE PRICE GOES FROM $85 UP TO $100 (yes, I am shouting).

Thanks,

Re: Southern California Tionol 2010

Just a quick reminder that the SCUPC is continuing with last year's fun (and punitive!) fee structure, so be sure to register by October 15 to get "early bird" price of $85 for this year's tionól. See the club website, http://www.socalpipers.com/tionol_2010_details.html for details. -Larry

Don't forget to bring a few boxes along to the SoCal Tionól, Nov. 5-7, in beautiful San Juan Capistrano.

Re: New bellows design

I think the name "Hidey Hole" is fine, but you might want to work on "butt crack air intake." :boggle:

Re: Why are there so few female pipers ?

I know I'm going to regret this, but here goes... My answer to the original question is "Who cares?" I don't know of any (current) statutory prohibition on women playing the pipes, or of any coordinated effort to discourage women from playing the pipes. Why an INDIVIDUAL of any configurati...

Re: Chanter disappeared in transit form Denmark to USA.

The Icelandic volcano eruptions really put a kink in air shipments, so there's a chance the chanter is still in a transport agent's warehouse. Hopefully it will turn up in the near future. I hope it was insured.

Re: Neil O'Grady Pipes

If you'd turn up at a SoCal Uilleann Pipers Club meeting, you could see Joseph's (Sampson) set, not too mention a wide array of pipes by variety of makes.

Posts and PMs are all well and good, but seeing, hearing and playing will give you the answers you seek.
