FS: Full Set Concert Pitch Uilleann Pipes by B.C. Childress

This is a set of uilleann pipes made in the mid-late 1990s by B.C. Childress. I will include a set of Michael Dow bellows (which need the hose replaced) and a double shotgun case for everything. I'll also include whatever spare reeds I've got laying about. Why suffer through the wait for a new set. ...

Stevie Ray Vaughn maintained that his best playing was done after he was clean and sober. He said it was harder work, but that it was worth the effort.

Re: Jean Pierre Rasle

Okay, so there's a French Instructor this year at the Piper's Gathering. I think I remember his name from past years. I assume he'll be teaching classes in G? Having just started playing, would it be worth it for me to try to take a class? Nate Okay Nate, let me answer your questions in order. Yes....

OK, Inspector Kleen! I hastily shot a few mugs and threw them up at the link below.

I wish this thread had been up last week as I was in NYC this past weekend. I should be there again in about 3 weeks and will run up to the Met and check this out.

They look okay at first blush, but based on looking at the seller's other items I would guess that they are manufactured in the Indian sub-continent. You can impute whatever meaning you wish to that.

They do emerge late at night Nate..... I think I'm one of the few French pipes players who shows up anymore - unless Nintch or Brian MacCandless drops by (or Charlie is there). We had Jean-Pierre Rasle as an instructor the last year we were at North Hero. If there's enough interest, I'd be happy to ...
